Georgians must have good boots, almost every body is missing them.

What does this say?

What do you mean "What does this say?"?

It doesn't say anything. It's just a bunch of squiggly lines.

Actually, I tried to come up with a translation. I can't make out the last word that well so all I have is "it is small by the buoy of ..."

By the way, I don't know Russian. I tried to decipher the handwriting with a Cyrillic alphabet chart off of Google images and typed what I got into a translator.:p

This means "Won't be enough - we'll add". Sorry, my English is not very good at idioms but that's close to original meaning "Мало будет - добавим". In Russian we need just three words to express that
