Super information ! Was not expecting to see this after so long time.
Thanks

[enorepap]

You're welcome.

Unfortunately 2013 and 2014 were my sabbatical years of absence from the forum because of my work pressure.

Let's say now I'm almost back in permanent service.

Best regards

The 1947 address (I made a mistake with the link): Baumwall 3
