Nice work and nice colour
I remember a costumer, who had a White Maxi.
It use to come in for service at the garage I had in 1985. _________________ http://www.eurods.eu/wp/index.html |

Hi Jens,
It might be because you wrote Costumer instead of Customer.
It's this crazy English humour, I have the same problems when I write
