You may not be able to match it so easily in this condition. we are here to help each other, so just post instead of searching through the gallery for hours. We are all friends here i think so Edited by johnes81 on 11-07-2019 15:30 John and Nini. Naturalists not experts.

I thought it was recorded. well, i'll have to track it down for you and visit you while i'm there. i've always wanted to visit Netherlands. I'll have to start reading my van Dale dictionary again. bedankt! John and Nini. Naturalists not experts.
