The site in 1998: |
| December 1998 | + | J. Cornellier told me about Money and Italian rocks. Baeten & De Dier set out for evidence. The result: from now on Naipaul has to share the roadsign pages with Martin Amis. |
| + | J.P. Arbelet sampled one wall and forced an update of two sections: Photography and Cleaning. The latter is definitely worth a visit. |
| November 1998 | + | Children from The Netherlands now on line thanks to A. Anselin. Devotee M. Tailly adds The Gambia to the country list. We have children and roadworks waiting for your visit. |
| + | Good news about the mills in Aragón. The mill in Gabardilla is probably safe. It was quiet on the mill front, but wait for the first weeks of next year. | |
| + | Four new brands in the Beer department. New images in the sections: Fuel, Paint, Bodycare and Food. New sections Photography and House and garden are now open. A new miraculous find of our restless Alain Guët made it necessary to give Martini its own page. | |
| + | John Cornellier returned from California with slow children from Yosemite NP |
| October 1998 | + | Anny Anselin brought back some new children from Austria Added Dutch VIGOR soap powder to the Cleaning section. |

| + | A new country on the site. P. Geers came back from Slovenia with nice children and a workman probably imported from Italy. | |
| + | The yearly update of the Belgian Opiliones (harvestmen) has been done. All maps are new and show also information on the sampling history. |
| July 1998 | + | The team has grown again. Suzanne Visser makes a splashing debut with roadsigns from Portugal and the Azores: Children, rocks and men. Some signs were only captured after a 6 km detour (on foot!), coming close to another team member securing a Lithuanian sign after a 2 hour hike! Suzanne is now working on her site about the history of roadsigns. I hope she doesn't neglect the fieldwork. |
| June 1998 | + | Our most mobile team member, T. Vandendriessche, brought a new sign in from Andasibe (Madagascar). |
