Soleil Royal by Heller - an Extensive Modification and Partial Scratch-Build by Hubac’s Historian

Absolutely. One of the main draws, for me, to this forum is that it has a broader European audience, and that means more modelers who are also interested in the 1650 - 1750 time period. However, because of this broad international coalition, there are bound to be communication hiccups, and occasionally I lose sight of that. As an American, I can barely understand French, let-alone any other foreign language, yet Europeans of all stripes can almost always find the bathroom, no matter where they are.

I offer my sincere apologies for being abrupt.
Everything is great. I can also add that there is also a spoken language... and sometimes the translator cannot understand how to translate, since some words or even sentences can be slang or untranslatable wordplay, but still I like to communicate and read posts here more than on the same Russian forums, where communication is less tolerant, less respectful. I once had a forum, and it was one of the largest in Ukraine, and as the owner I constantly moderated such topics. Here, even if there are some issues, they are always resolved very peacefully. And this is what I like about foreign forums.
 
Hi Marc. I just read about the sad family matters you have been dealing with lately. I would like to express my condolences and wish you much strength.
Hopefully your father will find some balance in his new surroundings. We went through something similar with my mother-in-law and a change of environment isn't always easy.
Regards, Peter
