I am just a dumb American, can anyone help with the translation... cry

"Beste fietser,

Ik ben tot 15 juli 2008 niet bereikbaar. U kunt gewoon een mail sturen. Na 15 juli 2008 zal ik deze mail zo snel mogelijk beantwoorden

Vriendelijke groeten van Ernie Frieke "


Ernie isn't telling me to get stuffed, eh? :?

Shouldn't have taken that French class.

You should PM Defiant, he's dutch and very friendly. I can speak german and this is very close to that but I can only make out about 75% of what the message says. I think that 'zo snel mogelijk beantwoorden' means I would like an answer quickly.

i have the same automated email in my inbox... he's on vacation until July 15 and will answer all emails asap when he's back. i am soooo darn curious if he managed to ship that big parcel before he left or not...

I feel for you. I felt the same way when Gil went on vacation. Low and behold my decals got here a few days after he went on Holiday. I will be need some translation when Ernie gets back. Just trying to get a 110 spider for my Revolution cranks. Cheers and good nite.
 
You guys did very well in translating this Dutch guy without any help, my compliments :D
It says indeed that he's out till the 15th of July, you can still mail him and he'll reply as soon as possible when he's back home
cheers Roy

Just let me know when you need some translation or other help,
cheers Roy
 
And tell me if you were able to buy ANYTHING from Ernie. I have mailed him 4 or 5 times for some parts, after the third mail he responded he may have a look but he does not like to send.... proposing I come to him and he takes a look if he still has the parts. Thats a 250 km drive without knowing if he has anything available. Even friendly questions why he does not want to send, accompanied by an explanation why I will not drive for maybe nothing...no answer.

I feel like he does not want to sell....

hee, that's the least you would expect after living five years in NL and working for a Dutch company ;)

Ernie is back home btw...

i've bought from Ernie a few times and he even shipped the stuff (still waiting for the big parcel) but indeed, it takes some time and passion to convince him to part with the vintage stuff ;)
