OK thanx guys, you must understand 2 things:
1. I'm Dutch and therefore as dumb as a mule illy:
2. I'm still a rookie around here.

I need the occasional bucket of water-approach now and then. So please be bold!

"pictures shouldn't be much more than 400 x 400 or thereabouts."

Cheers for that!

On with the show!

The Dutch are never dumb John.....comes from having a language nobody else can pronounce, so they nearly all speak better English than we do!

Wouldn't be too sure about that first part John.
Sometimes even we can't understand them.



Joke, Dinkel, honest!

Well, to the best of my knowledge, at least they only have one language, unlike your country, which can't make up its' mind! .....and, in case you think I'm being unkind, I had a wonderful time at Spa and can't wait to come back

I have to say that where ever i go and sign on at all the circuits around europe there is allways a very nice person who speaks english. "i dont think we repay the compliment in the UK" May be its because everyone speeks english. We do have a few problems when we are running the Japan drivers.
Ah So .
