If I go on the internet during office hours I will have to pay an = additional $ 0,03 cts per hour. If I go on the internet in the evening I will have to pay an = additional $ 0,02 cts per hour. Cheap for me. Our english friends will undoubtedly tell you about their internet = situation and, we are all still waiting for some other parts of the = world to join us, are we not? If you would like more info about Holland (the weather is ALWAYS = LOUSY to begin with) or Amsterdam, do not hesitate. friendly greetings from: Andr=E9 Oorebeek CONCERT PIANO SERVICE Amsterdam, the Netherlands email: oorebeek@euronet.nl
