Occasionally, they will appear from a high balcony and wave their hands. That is the only exercise they are permitted.<br /><br />I think these are the children of the other people who pay for all of the fancy gilded gates. The children must start work at a very early age to pay for all of the gold on the gates. And then, for every pound (uh, I'll explain that later) that they pay for almost anything, they have to pay 20 per cent more to pay for, uh well I don't know what that pays for. It must be for even more gilded gates.<br><br>O Dockerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08674140306304705852noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3740572667294775424.post-13649137783622545062013-03-15T12:57:09.131-07:002013-03-15T12:57:09.131-07:00I know!
