My wife's birthday.

There are quiet a few days gone by since I wrote my last post, it’s not the lack of interest that’s the problem it’s finding the time to sit down and write, (what an excuse)

It’s Saturday afternoon and I am sat out side with my new toy (note-book) and the weather is sunny with one or two clouds and that’s the way I like it. With my two fingers technique I am battering this post on to my hard drive so that I can make a copy, transfer it to my old computer were I have internet connection. At the moment I am with out Internet on my notebook but hoping to have it installed in the next two weeks, my neighbour is going to help me with the installation because I have no idea what so ever in such things.

This morning I talked to my brother over Skype for an hour and enjoyed every minute of it, like always he give me some very useful tips for setting up my notebook. I could do with him over here.

Yesterday was my wife’s birthday the day started with breakfast on the patio I biked to the bakery and bought fresh bread rolls. We sat at the breakfast table till gone ten talking and just enjoying the morning sun. We had a light lunch around one then I drove to the local xxxxxx and bought apple cake (a Germany specialty) with cream for afternoon coffee. We had planned to go into town for coffee but my wife decided she would like to stay at home, that was all right with me, it was her day and we did what she wanted to do. In the evening we did a BQ and sat out side with a good bottle of wine till quarter past nine then we went indoors and watched a favourite series of ours on TV that comes once a week on Fridays, we were in bed for eleven. The day was a pleasant and relaxing one for both of us.

At the beginning of the week we drove into Düsseldorf to do some shopping and to buy my wife her birthday present.

My wife had had mentioned a few weeks back that she would like some new earrings from me for her birthday, I said ok only on one conditions that she comes along with me when I buy them, this is done out of experience, how many times have I bought my wife something and it was not her taste. I remember a few years back I was on business in Hong Kong and I bought my wife a handbag (what I thought) was a top design one. On arriving home my wife could not believe that I had bought so an old fashioned handbag for her of course she was disappointed and so was I.

Seeing that Thursday was public holiday over here the week was a bit hectic and so it seems once again that the week has just flown by. I believe that the time goes faster the older one gets, it certainly seems that way to me.

Take care out there were ever you are. Tschüss.
