Hmm, maybe we should open a small Musicaid / Simmons museum in there ;-)
Or use it as a Vereinsheim ! Or a new place for Michael for

But as the taxman snatched all my money we have to put this on ice  
for a while ;-)

Hatfield Road 176 did not seem to be inhabited. It's probably for  
sale. As a real Musicaid fan, Thomas, wouldn't that be an object for  
you? For spending the annual holidays?

It cannot be too expensive though...
