Wolf One had mijn stash met zijn prikstok doorboord (achteraf gezien is die kerel vast met een DEGEN op stap, hahahaha !) en dus moest ik één en ander vervangen. Omdat de hele inhoud nat was heb ik het zootje maar naar huis meegenomen en de stash gewoon door een vers & fris & droog exemplaar vervangen.

En nu ben ik dus - onverwacht & plotseling - in het bezit ener Travel Bug.

Even geduld, ik ga James Cook binnenkort wel weer op weg helpen !

Met vriendelijke groeten,

BOB VALDEZ
