 Hi Jose :wave:

This Link is not working for me.
& nor are some of your others.

They are obviously working for other people though.
I can't figure out WHY ?

:moose:

Si.

A while back, you re-posted a link of mine that didn't work for you.
A small difference of 1 '/' as far as I remember.
Any idea what the hell is going on ??

 Just tried it. Works fine. Maybe adding more coal to the steam-powered PC?. Do you have filters in the search engine?. Using (god help you) Windoze (lost) Explorer?.
