Since I've been told that some people have had trouble getting hold of 'dink' in the past, I've had no trouble and very quick responses from Xavier, after contacting him via the e-mail link here!, which is mailto:delta@lanciahf.eu
He will reply from a personal account @yahoo.fr, but that shouldn't faze anyone.

HTTH

Cheers, Tim

P.S. I did start off in French, which always seems to go down well with our continental friends.

We must all do our part for the planet.
I unplugged a row of electric cars that nobody was using.

Oh, Walloons, you mean. The site's in French so I adapt to the presumed native language. That was my intended meaning.

I think you'll find Walloons are French-speaking. You're thinking of Les Flamands...

"Walloon is more distinct as a language than Belgian French" according to Wikipedia, but I'll accept the 'like French' association. smile I never could work out which section of the Belgian populace, and where, were called what and spoke which variant of what other language. 'Polyglot' is too narrow a description of Belgian national linguistics. wink

Hi Xavier, I'll certainly keep you informed, upon receipt and about progress. I could envy you your location, I often ski the 'other end' of La Voie Laiteuse, around Sauze D'Oulx or Sestriere. smile
