Israel is a very small country.

Monday night, Yonatan phoned home to tell us that it was a good friend of his who was killed by sniper fire from Lebanon. They were together in the NCO course and afterwards as squad leaders. Yonatan moved to another company to be platoon sergeant, but David stayed where he was.

David should have gone home for Yom Kippur, but somebody asked him to swap... He was due to finish his army service next week!

Yesterday, Carol realised that she knows David's mother - they have been going to the same English teacher's training course for a year.

So I finally got the urge to start my own blog...

Hunted around for a free service that also supplied an RSS feed, and came across BLOGDRIVE.
