Μπορεί πρόσφατα να έχασε κάποια δακτυλάκια αλλά αυτό δεν θα τον εμποδίσει να πάει στην τελετή δεδομένου μάλιστα ότι θα γίνει στην πόλη που μένει.Αρκετά βολικό! Κοιτάζοντας τα ονόματα που έχουν πάρει τον τίτλο,καταλαβαίνετε πόσο σπουδαιος είναι. Edited November 9, 2008 by heiron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
