Youness,
Are you the only one coming from over the atlantic ? Ifso, this would mean
you'll probalbly gonna have to take a lot of shirts with you when returning
.. I hope it won't be a problem with the customs .. but also, you'll need to
makje sure to have some space and weight to be used :). I still have to
find a plan to bring all the T's to brussels too as a hundred tees is some
boxes full and I usually trvel by train.
That's all when I am the one to take care of this. If some other (from
belgium, forum users ...) wants to help out, point 'm to me :)). Ifso we
also have to find out how to pass me some money for when I'm gonna get 'm :)
back to studies now.
