    HTF REIVEW: Mary Poppins 40th Anniversary SE - HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!

    ArthurMy, Apology accepted, but I must say you had me worried there for a while.:) The first track is fabulous, while the Disney remix is just plain lousy. Enjoy the DVD Mate. :) PS. Just as a matter of interest are you able to view it in pure PAL or via NTSC conversion. If the...

    HTF REIVEW: Mary Poppins 40th Anniversary SE - HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!
