Hello. Welcome to my talk page. I prefer mostly the more common type of talking; if you leave a message on my talk page, I will respond right here on my talk page; if I leave a message on your talk page, you can respond on your talk page. Please put your topic at the bottom of the page and sign your posts with four tildes (~ ~ ~ ~). Thank you. Josephine W. (talk) 06:22, 3 November 2019 (UTC)
