Dear Steve. We do know each other. Dont know if you remember that you visited me about 20 to 25 years ago, when i was still living in a little town called Berstadt in an old building with a huge natural stone barn in the back. Kinde remember that you bought some VL parts from me. I called already the Westcord hotel in Raalte to book a room for two, but they told me they are fully booked. Dont know if you as the european president of the club ore maybe Max Middelbosch got any influance on that.
I would have loved to stay directly at the event and not in some hotel outside. Please let me know if you might be able to arange something. So long Richard Coley

Dear Richard, many of us booked the Westcord Hotel when we left last year, so I can understand it being full already. I have no influence on the hotel but Max may be a better bet.

You may try the Hotel de Zwaan, which is abt 1km away. So walking distance.

Howdy Richard, Welcome to the forum. If you come to the US for a meet, Wauseon is the one to attend. If you do, I will be working first shift at the registration tent on Friday. Dr. Smarty Pants
