I noticed that too
I thought maybe I was forbidden to go there on this different computer. Anyway, I was trying to get help on a phrase in a letter I was translating. Standard business lingo is not my specialty...

thanks

thanks,

Congratulations on your move to Toledo. I really liked Toledo when I visited there many moons ago...:) In fact, I liked it so much I went there several times while I was in Spain.
