Not that I have seen, and I just checked a couple of seconds ago.

I also gave them to others to

I would love to have copies, but I have no website either.

As for pets, I have a California Dessert Tortoise.  Very easy pet to have.  Keep him fed, watered
and give occasional attention and he is very happy for six months.  The other six months he is
hybernating.  Nothing high maintenance about him.  He even comes when he is called.

> Philippine Welser, eh? Nothing like sibling rivalry :)

I thought they were cousins.  Philippine was the more flamboyant.  She secretly married Archduke
Ferdinand, second son of Holy Roman Emperor Ferdinand I.  I can find a lot of information about
her in English, but nothing about Sabina's life, in English.  I have recently received my copy of
"Die Welser", which has a chapter on Sabina and Philippine in it.  In my Copious Spare Time, I am
going to have to translate it into English, just to find out anything about Sabina.
