What follows is a salutary lesson for all of us! BACK UP YOUR COMPUTER DATA! either on to CD's, DVD's or a SEPARATE hard drive, it can happen to you, it did happen to Michael! Webmasters Tips!

Dear friends in 41 International.

I had bad luck. My hard disc suddenly without warning broke down because the head reading the information was torn off and this ruined the whole disc. I therefore lost all my photos and my e-mail addresses as well as all other information. I kindly ask for you help in the following way:

1. If you have the possibility to bring to Durban, South Africa some photos for me. Either in papercopy or on a CD-rom it will be much appreciated.

2. After April 25th. you can also e-mail to me photos as attachments to dalbo@mailme.dk  BUT please do not do this before this date. Otherwise you will fill my mail box.

3. Could all people that I have had contact with the past 7-8 years please send me their e-mail addresses and other information as well so I again can build up my Outlook programme with all this information. I     have to start from scracth.

4. Alternatively I can borrow your film or photos and make my own copies.

I need photos from:

A. Finland, Ekenæs March 5th. to the 7th. 2004

B. Denmark, Faaborg April 2nd. to the 4th 2004

C. Scotland, Edinburgh April 15th. to the 18th. 2004 as well as the pretour

F. France, Arras June 4th. to the 6th. 2004 as well as Monets Garden and Lucy's and Michel's home
