        #17 spring( the cherry blossoms)
        #18 spring( after Tu Fu )

        So,I'd like to choose Tina-san's farm tractor because of its indication of cultivating at spring time, although I know this kasen is not moving regularly on purpose.

        Dear Mr. Chairman
        and Tina-san

        I must confess and apologize that the verse posted as #18 was a copy of the great Chinese poet, Tu Fu and not of my own idea.
        Please correct to (Tu Fu on the d.horse) as the original composer's name.
        Very sorry, d.horse

        Thanks for a quick response and a kind comment.

        This is ¡Æthat¡Ç which, put before a name, indicates a person or thing assumed to be known. It implies dislike, and sometimes admiration, e.g., I hate that Andrew Jones/Ah, in that England of yours, women marry for wealth.
