There is something special with identical male twins, two identical boys or two identical men, formed from one egg. It's the same with female twins. They're popular in stories involving magicians and witches. Sometimes, they are dressed in the same clothes. Who can distinguish one from the other? Non-identical twins do not present the same problem. They are born at the same time, but they could be a different sex, a different size, different colouring, etc. However, they can still be dressed a bit alike.

Ma hedna ow menya moy liednow ha dilhas rag an jynn-gòlhy avorow. There is no limit to bad luck, so it seems. Am I pessimistic? Mishaps come in threes, but I have had more than three disasters already. What is the problem today? Our daughter is ill and she can't collect her children. I must entertain them. We played hangman many times, and chess and cards. What do sick children like to eat? Perhaps a few grapes. But that was not a very good idea. Eleven o'clock, the lit...

Will I lose my right mind soon? What is next? The first boy was sick again half an hour before midnight, and the second boy was sick twelve hours later. Lots of washing. The washing machine worked non-stop for many hours.
