Hi MMDers.  This is a quick note to say that my wife, Beryl, and I are
leaving Tasmania's rather chilly shores in two week's time to spend
August and September in Holland, where my son and daughter-in-law work.

We will be based in Groningen but will be doing quite a bit of touring
around, in particular in the Ardennes in France, a bus tour of Switzer-
land and a visit to Brugge.  If there are any subscribers to MMD who
would like to say hello while we are there, I'd love to hear from you.

I will also mention that I have four Empeco expression rolls.  If they
are likely to be of any use to anyone in Europe I could probably pack
them in my suitcase and maybe we can arrange some sort of swap.

John Phillips in Hobart, Tasmania.
