That's about right isn't it.

WOMEN KNOWING THEIR PLACES

A point of view... Barbara Walters of Television's 20/20 did a story
on gender roles in Kabul, Afghanistan, several years before the
Afghan conflict.. She noted that women customarily walked 5 paces
behind their husbands.
She recently returned to Kabul and observed that women still walk
behind their husbands. From Miss Walter's vantage point, despite the
overthrow of the oppressive Taliban regime, the women now seem to
walk even further back behind their husbands and are happy to
maintain the old custom.

Miss Walters approached one of the Afghani women and asked, "Why do
you now seem happy with the old custom that you once tried so
desperately to change?"
The woman looked Miss Walters straight in the eyes, and
without hesitation, said, "Land Mines."

MORAL OF THE STORY:
BEHIND EVERY MAN IS A SMART WOMAN.

Good night friends.

After my long weekend away from this blog I come back to 10 pages, you don't seem to be able to go further, and that is 100 posts from my friends. I am about half way through so it's time for a cup of tea and look for a photo that is somewhere on my computer, I'm not sure where but I will come across it eventually.

Still, I did come across other bits and pieces, it is really time that I started deleting things, how about this to make the photographers jealous,
