Dear Paul,

I have seen your photo’s and I am quit jealous. I think your doing a 
good job and I saw some other classic cars in the background!
I understood you are Dutch as well. Maybe we can meet some time to 
exchange experiences. :-)
Tomorrow I will go to Vehekel, a national old timer market. Its my first 
visit and I hope to see a lot of interesting stuff.
