Ponios,
galbūt jūsų vyresniems vaikams sunku rasti sutuoktinį?
tai gali būti sunku net normaliai atrodantiems jaunuoliams
be jokių elgesio problemų.
Kodėl gi neužsukę į registratūrą ir neužmiršdami
žodžio su didele Aurelija.
Ji turi ilgametę sėkmingų piršlybų patirtį savo kaime ir dabar čia.
Jos mokesčiai yra pagrįsti ir ji siūlo pinigų grąžinimo garantiją,
jei viskas nesiseka.
