  3. Noorie! I have not been able to get my comments through anywhere, wth can that be? I am trying again this time from my laptop. Well it's the same old story! I was having trouble with blogger so i switched my blog back to wordpress. I did all the steps to redirect the old to the new but it doesn't seem to be working on links. So could you once again relink me to thegharqadtree.com? This time it's gharqad with a G not Q although it was a mistake I shouldn't have changed because it's messed up my linking.so it is Gharqad tree not Qharqad. I know you had trouble linking to me on wordpress till i got on blogger but I hope it works this time, if you would be so kind! Thanks, Genie
