I just wish I would have seen 'your homepage' soon enough to make plans for Christmas.

I have a daughter that collects Barbies.

I have a son that collects GI Joe's.

I have eBay.

I have a soldering iron.

And I have blueprints.

And I'm sure I can find some appropriate occasion.

No hace falta capitalizar, pero así suena mejor.

Anyway, the french one is a translation from Google.

Now, I've got it, Arildno:

God Jul og Godt Nyttår :biggrin:

That's enhanced by the usual collection of Hyperlinks given by Astronuc in each one of his posts. :smile:
