O/T for Klaus

[Klaus Major]

Hi Shari,

(latscho dives, romeza)
Sorry, but do you speak "romanes", a bit maybe?
Or are "irish" gypsies a totally different thing from
the "european" Sinti and Roma?

I had been working with some gypsy guys, played the bass in
some "sinti jazz" bands (a la Django Reinhardt), so i know some
"romanes" terms (and a LOT of swing tunes) :-)

thanks a lot for your commiseration!

Actually, we had been moving about 2 years ago and the last box
had been folded and put into our cellar rooms about a month ago... :-D

But anyway, we will make it somehow and we have a CLOSED trailer
fortunately :-)
