I'll thank you. I'm so in need to talk with you in chinese but I cant yet. I'm in process of learning the characters. About 1000 to go (I have a textbook with 3000 so its like 30%more). I can understand already what chinese people write to me and a general meaning of the text but I dont know neither the words or grammar so its long way ahead. But i'm always happy if I can exchange some information with native chinese people and we seem to go along quite nicely. You have similar hobby :)
