  7. Hallo Mariette,

    In het nederlands dan maar, dan kun je dat nog een beetje bijhouden ;))!

    Ik volg je al(sinds gisteren hahahahah) en ik ga een vermelding op mijn blog plaatsen!

    Swolgen is waarschijnlijk het centrale IP-adres? Ik roep maar wat, heb oook al eens gezien dat ik als afkomstig uit America(HORST America;)) vermeldt wordt, ik heb werklijk geen idee, maar je weet toch, alles ligt hier zo dicht bijelkaar, het maakt niet veel verschil!:)

    Ik hoop dat je herstel inderdaad voorspoedig verloopt en alles weer lekker "vanzelf"gaat,met natuurlijk de valkuilen in het achterhoofd!:)

    Voor nu Haije wah;))

    Liefs,
    Lynda

  55. Liebe Mariette,
    eben bin ich auf Deine Verlosung bei Irmi aufmerksam geworden. Komme im Augenblick leider durch die erneute Erkrankung meiner Mutti nicht so herum. Gern würde ich auch teilnehmen, aber ich wohne ja zu weit weg, da wird das Porto ziemlich teuer.

    Liebe Sonntagsgrüße
