It would be interesting if someone could tell me what ringing here was like and if there was ever a local band here during this time. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Regards <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Oliver lee<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Sent from <a href="https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=550986">Mail</a> for Windows 10<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></body></html>
