                        Kaleu, I didn't know you were an Eric too. Big Smile [:D] Man there are alot of us Eric's here. Cool [8D] We're taking over the forum. Moooaaaahaaahaaa. Evil [}:)]

                        I'm sure everyone in the forum has heard of the British nicknaming the Germans as Jerrys, but not Erics, during the war.
