Hi John,

As others have said, there are people from your neck of the woods on here, and I know for sure that Martin is in St Helens. If you look at the UK section especially, you'll get a lot of info and hopefully answers to any questions you have - and certainly get some good chat!

Hi John and welcome to RMP!!!

I believe you've made a big step already in your quest to find yourself an FSU wife! If there is anything specific you need to know, just ask the guys here on the board and they will be only too happy to help you.

If you find any information on "one to one" Russian lessons close to the St. Helens area, please post it on the forum as I for one would be interested too. I know there a Russian language courses at St. Helens college; maybe someone there could help you.

Good luck in your quest,

Gary

Yo Just

get the Berlitz 3-Cd set. It is great for learning a bit of basic Russian. Glad to see you want to improve yourself!
