                tried the cd's and failed . did 4 years at night school (spanish) and still failed miserably. i get the gist of johns spanish but not all of it. just can't seem to get it in my head. so it's not for want of trying. i'm just not made to speak another language.

                I was offering a free translation programme that I found on my travels but as the topic was about translations then I thought I would see who did their work
