	Hmmm, well people I've talked to haven't had the problem with Land
Rover parts so I doubt thats a problem.

	Well, after my Family's Africa Trip we tried to get through
customs in Germany with a bunch of African Spears and Bow and Arrows.
They didn't like that to much.  Looked at us like we were Terrorists.  No
problem in France, Enland or Africa or the States but Germany didn't like
it.  (Like I'm really going to hold up a 747 with a Spear)  But my Dad
knew the Pilot (Both flew for Pan Am) so he gave them to him and he
carried them on by himself and gave them to us when we boarded.  :-)
Actually I guess it wasn't customs but Security that didn't like the
spears.
	Anyhow, Didn't I say I was going to bed. :-)
