    or something else, seeing that we(the dutch) all have to go back financial steps in 2010, but the Royals still get 40 million to SPEND!


    Perhaps the can pay the volutairy contribution at the end of the ceremony sunday for us all. ;)

    Okay Guys, not the best quality and I have to remove the bad parts,
    but I simply have no time for that at the moment as you hopefully will understand.
    Also I had to remove parts as youtube doesn't allow movies from more
    then 10 minutes. So later on I have to make 2 movies from the material I
    have.
    In any case, it is like it is and better something then nothing.

    By pure coincidence two friends of mine (British paras) and myself bumped into a group Americans today, which had com to Holland to honour Joe Mann (101 AB Div). Among the group were Joe Mann's nephew (young man at the right in first two pictures) and his sister (lady with the yellow rose).

    Missed the unveiling of that monument, if someone has pix for me that
    would be nice. I saw it's a glider.

    That much. Even the old folkes in the I guided group today thought it was "a bit ugly". And usually our British friends are very polite.

    That is a lot for a 2D airfix model.... Arnhem should watch out not going the way of quantity over quality.

    Regards,
