Someone with admin rights should be able to just change your username (I'm an admin on a forum that uses the same software as here and I've done it on there a few times.)

Page 4, 4th paragraph "...En jaar na jaar maak ons die Kewer meer Kewer...". Gotta love those "bilingual" brochures from back then, because right next to it in English "...And year by year we've made the Beetle more than a Beetle..."

Was al jou vriende rooinekke? Jy moes meer tyd met die boere gespandeer! :-)

No, it is "kewer" in Afrikaans. The 2 languages parted company a good few hundred years back so the variations in spelling, which letters make what sounds, and so on have made them 2 seperate languages as they are now. If you are interested in Dutch and related languages have a look here -> http://www.lowlands-l.net/

Never heard that before. Interesting as I speak the language?
