Thanks to Silke who dug that one out... almost 10 years ago... and funnily, I'll be omw to Dublin today, fer a week of enjoyment, no hazzle, lotsa booze, plenty of burgers, and surely one or the other beer fart in da morning (excuse me language, hehe)

strange thing though, I've been over so many times the past 10 years (20 - 30 times?), but this actually is the first time I will be paying for the flight and accomodation...

Oyster Stout, Westport, Guinness, Ed, Feargal, Jessy Eastpoint Park, Bray - here I come ;)

Right so, got the cheque from SB, and as it was a beautiful day I decided to cash it in, have breakfast and walk back via the Alster... excellent choice. Especially good, as walking did me good - still suffering from the "painting the kitchen job" from last saturday...

PS: what did I do the last 2 weeks? well, Oct. 3 - got very drunk with Jessy,  ended up in ex-sparr. Oct - 5 - got drunk with Conor and Junior - ended up in Rosies. Oct - 6 got drunk with Schippi + Willi + Co., ended up in Watzmann... last week no EQ really, and no withdrawal symptoms either... ;)

Left work at 5, in order to do some shopping, as the lil one was about to arrive. heavy stuff, all the food which one needs in order to feed his lil/big bro... Franky then dropped by around 8, after he finished his training. Sat down to have a few starters and a glass of Rosè. nice, siting outside, as it was still around 20 Celsius...

Claudi prepared her lurvely Spagghetti with shrooms, which we in the best hammerlike "seek  and destroy" fashion got downe with in a few mins (well, me anywayz, hehe). continued to chat about Galileo - Franky seems to have gathered all his knowledge from there - j/k :-D Fortunately the lil one was able to get my 2 machines connected, so I can finally share stuff between them (check Firewall settings FTW).

was time to do some serious gaming. oh well, TA CD's broken, so i installeld a pinball simulation. and how great that went! some more beers and a few giggles later we had a last Grappa and went to bed.

got up today, and decdided to go for breakfast, havin a nice walk through the alstertal first. well, off we went, and after we got stuffed of coruse, some more exercise. packing and leaving was a mater of a couple of mins, and 30 mins later I wave dthe lil one good bye...

PS: Franky, enjoy the speakers, the sneakers and the painting. :)
PPS: here a link to all them piccies taken. if ye can't see them, shout.

hm, maybe the last time Jo was in the office in Berliner Tor today. the lucky sod is on vacation starting today and flying out to the Maledives next week... anyhow, Frank Jo and I had some red wine, some ouzo, some more starters, some more food - had Moussaka as main course - not as nice as usual, a tad too salty imho :-(. too stuffed for desert, so we had one more raki instead :-D left about 9, and Jo was nice enough to drive me to the underground.

Joern R., looking quite serious... and here Hakan, looking even more serious ;) 4 days training about a tool, where it is likely that we will discontinue using it... "don't question authority, they don't know either" but the food is great (delivered from "lust auf italien") and the location down the river Elbe enables me to take the ferry boat every morning. fanfrikkintastic!
