Re: Raffy wins - Go Katrina!

Wonderful News! I am really impressed this time how well this whole process has gone. In my gut, I feel this is based on India's history of having a extremely reliable supplier in France, as has been proven in the past. Going forward, this will bring on the least headaches since we are dealing with ...
