RE: Member Photos
Here's one final set, featuring a nice time capsule of the 60ies. Road race. They used to have them back them. Ordinary people competing with their ordinary cars.

One final one, since Ma shouldn't be left out. On the banks of the Danube with a shuffleboard passing

Ah... lost in translation.

Paddle steamship or steamer would be most accurate.

I love all the pics, Abaris ... I feel like I know you much better now.

Wish I had old photos to put up, but most of them were destroyed in a fire around 2002.

Sorry to hear that. I'm glad, my father stored all the old pictures and films in our cellar before the house fire in 1996. What got lost though are all the images from our USA trip of 1971. Might have struck some nostalgic bells with you guys.

I misspelled. Shuffleboat, not board.
