The first one none of them appear to be similar, but thats not an option and the last one, on the assumption that an individual and municpaility are opposites, then i need the opposite for a loan and cant really see any of those fitting Edited 22 April, 2009 by Gemmel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
