My son plays soccer at his high school, and Croatia became his favorite team to watch.
I think Eduardo is on his computer wall paper.
From there, he checked out some language books from the library and later bought some more.
When I was his age, I tinkered with motorcycles. He tinkers with languages.

Merry Christmas to you and yours.
 
nice to hear that (but to be honest I'm not much of a soccer fan because all of the fan rage and violence connected with that game around here)

anyhow merry christmass to all of you and sretan božić to your son
 
My son typed in the following:

Nisam baš navijač od ekipa ali točnije mjesta da predstavljaju, i naravno nogomet općenito. Sretan Božić!
 
Welcome to the board! My grandmother was from Croatia and my grandfather was from Bosnia. Now I'll have to find the copies I have of their papers to find out what towns they were from.
 
nice to know that there is a lot of friends in the whole world from my small homeland

Finfan if I could be of any assistance don't hasitate to ask

I have a question for all of U - can U suggest a shop or dealer of a engine kit that would be willing to ship to Croatia? I've tried to make a deal with a few web shops but had no luck

a few days ago I was lucky enough to came across an old NSU Quick fork from 1936 (NSU is a German motorcycle company and Quick is one of their older models), the pics are pics just from a testfitting, there'll be some sandblasting and repainting/powdercoating of almost every part of the bike...btw still in search fot the cheapest way to get hold of a 66 bike kit and have it sent to my home (for the moment the shipping is more expensive than the kit itself :( )

ok, and now those pics

all the work is beeing done in my flat (dining area hehe) on the 12th flor - what to say - I have the best girl in the wold
 
cream did a song titled nsu, when i was in germany in the 60s there were nsu cars that just totally rocked, i also have a great chick but she wont lrt me work on the bikes in the house, waycool bike wish i could help with the kit keep trying something will work out, frank
 
as far as I know NSU joined up at one point with Auto Union I think and than the Audi was born (maybe I'm wrong?!?), anyhow, the project is defenetly going on, if nothing else I'll pay for that expensive shipping ;)

unfortunatly it's not my work - it's standar paint scheme for 2004 Felt Red Baron ;)

the bike will be repainted probably to be a "sidekick" for my car ;)
