      Doogman reacted to natefaith's post in the thread Compostela with Like Like.
      Just met another pilgrim recently who had this wish, but it ended up that the Pilgrim's Office issued one Compostela with both his name and his friend's name on it, in Vicarie Pro. Receiving two different Compostelas wasn't possible. This pilgrim...
