Thanks for clearing that matter up regarding 'habitar'. Also, I only open the room later in the day and as my schedule allows which is around 2200 - 0300 GMT....
Hi David, What time would that be in Holland? Now it is 22.20 here, at the moment. Hopefully it won't be to late, since I have to get early to go to work ...
I think Holland is in the Central European Time zone (CET), which is +1 hour to Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). So that would be 2300 - 0400. I do have the room...

Nobody ever shows up in my Ido chatroom - nobody that is interested in Ido that is (argh). Instead of using a chat room, perhaps we could simply converse...
Dear David, I was there, twice. But no sign of David or any other person, but maybe I was in the wrong room? Tonight I will go to the chat room of "ido-angla"...
