Hi Ebrima (Coach) Ceesay
I haven't heard from you in quite some time. I've been reading about
your get togethers at Ndey Jobarteh's Flat. Wish I were there!
I would like to write to you at your e-mail address, or do you receive
all you e-mails at this address?
How is your wife Sandra? I read that you hit her car. I hope
everything is fine now. My wife, Irie, extends her greetings to you and
Sandra.
Let's stay in touch. You have my e-mail address, it the same. Please
drop me a line very soon.
