Hello Andreass,

Thanks for the lyrics,finally have contact with you,did write you some
letters in recent years but never had an answer.Maybe you relocated?
Don't know if you're in to Hawkwind related but have some very ultra
rare Belgium posters,tickets etc. for swap/sale.I'm not into money,ask
Bernie (funny name,by the way)
Also my Belgium friend asked me if there's a website with Hawkwind
lyrics.Had a small look around,but didn't find any.Can you help or anyone?

best wishes
filip hawknut
