Alexandra Feodorovna / Re: Re: Alexandra and her Health Part 2

I have just had a sudden attack of sciatic pain and it hurt to do anything. It's still hurting in fact. I now have an idea of what she went through almost every day.
Knowing the pain that Alexandra was in most of the time makes it possible to understand why she would be considered stand-offish, uninterested in her surroundings, or even tightlipped on occassion. That level of pain really would cloud your judgement and make her a bit tense.

I just read this book. Good, but a little confusing towards the end. But then I got it.

I remember reading in Peter Kurth's Tsar, that she spoke with an Anglo-German housewifey trill. Don't know if that helps, but there you go.

Well, I'm a recent Romanov lover, and I remember well my first pictures. :D The first I see in Wikipedia, searching about the real Anastasia Romanov, after see the 1997 cartoon by 20th Fox.  :)

Here:
Alexandra and OTMA in 1913.


And the second I saw in one  site, but I don't remember where...   :-[

The bottom one is the first pic I ever saw of them.

Sorry if there is already a thread on this, but didn't Nicholas have a parrot named Popov? If so, are there any pictures of him?

I've heard people say that English is a hard language to learn, but I am a native speaker, so I wouldn't really know.
