No, I’m not going Dadaist on you (I will leave that to Nichole). I end up saying all this very frequently actually, except not like that: by spelling my name – S.A.B.I.N.E. (I know, how clever of me).
In this country for some unknown (and slightly irritating) reason, I have to spell my first name on an almost daily basis. If my father had won (and I had been called Florence) I’m fairly sure I would never have to do that. But my mum prevailed, so I have a shorter and more difficult name (the one she always knew she would give to one of her daughters someday). So I might have to spell my name very often but it’s a gift from my mum – something precious between her and me that was long coming.
Awww right?

You have a beautiful name and you are lovely and cute. I need to email you! Sorry I’m so lackadaisical. I love your emails :)
I’m going to have a girl called Sabine one day. (Although this has been planned long in advance)
Lizzie and Suzie, keep it coming!! You’re cheering me up ladies!
