Re: May PUG is Up!

Henk I had a good look through that lot. Quite remarkable! Plenty of opportunities for me to try something like that around here - max. about 70 years! Alan C On 07-May-22 06:06 PM, Henk Terhell wrote: Thanks Alan for your interest. There will be no English version as it is so much effort

Ann, sure I've been visiting many European countries in my life for holidays as well as for work. However in recent years with all border restrictions and chaos in air travelling we no longer fancy going abroad. Driving a car is also not much fun nowadays in most areas of Europe due to heavy
