It’s done. Over. No more posts.Please, feel free to take snaps of the window display to be used as a worst . Keep in mind, my comments dont reflect the owners opinion, I have no vested interest apart from a weekly salary (no commission).Orbea, you haven’t visited the gallery?TLA has, recently, he thinks it’s great. I will try hard to come up with a worst, but it will be hard with all the great stuff we have here.But, I agree : COCO/DC PLEASE remove any mention of the gallery in the other thread that Natalia Fan linked to, again xxxx’s are fine.Fortunately, I have not used my wordpress account to log in here.So, in the interests of public safety, this will be NVL’s last post, as NVL.
