Your language map of Uganda does not show any actual language called "Ugandan".

But we will let it slide.

Votic

Right I think im gonna nip this in the bud right now cos im getting sick of this. First you accuse me in several of my posts of making errors and demoralising my knowledge and now you're at it again.
Excuse me but cant you get the message? I am not interested in you and I did not ask you to send me emails. Someone who cant even send a pm first is never going to get a response and by the sounds of you you sound like a stalker. So leave me alone or I'll get a mod to come and sort you out.
