[gothic-l] Re: háils

[Ingemar Nordgren]

Dear Llama,

This is quite interesting and a good try of reconstruction of
calendars. I would like to preserve it better  but some characters of
quite important meaning are not readable on my computer even if I
doubtless have the fonts. It is evidently the messenger/browser that
is wrongly set for reception. Could you please lie it all as a
word-file in the file section or send it as attachment directly to my
adress?

Best
Ingemar
