PS: Did you have any time for the meet at the end of June? Please e-mail me if you have news.

Jochen, can you make it also next saturday in stead of Sunday? Just a thought as Sunday is the end of the holidays which means a lot of extra traffic problems. It also depends on the weather. BW Roger

It’ll be a shame to see it go, I think that colour scheme really suited them.
