1.6.2010 - Mega ES all over Europe

This was the best ES happening ever, here. It started with unidentified Italians at 15.00 but turned quick to Istanbul and Turkey mixed with occasional Greek and Balkan stations. Then from 17 there was some French influence. One hour later there was short Benelux skip, which was spread a while to UK. Whole show was in the package 7½ hours later!
