This is Sander Mijnster, taking care of the CD department of Snijders HiFi shop in Rotterdam Netherlands. He is born in Dordrechtand lives ther now
for all of his life.
We share the affinity for classical (mainly baroque) music. Sometimes we visit a concert together. He is the proud owner of a very expensive stereo
installation
Later I wil add a gallery with photos of it.

We are seated her at a terrace in the centre of Dordrecht.

There was an advertisement on a unsolved murder mystery, which took place over 10 years ago near wher my friend Martha lived. She has an own theory about
who may have committed this murder. She has phoned the police but they were not over enthousiastic. Martha now is on holiday in Australia, she might see this photo

And suddenly there was a wedding going on
