PROST! NEU JAHR.



Things sometimes never work out the way you thought they would. The last few hours of 2008 my wife and I celebrated alone.
Taking the dog a walk before settling down for the evening, well to tell the truth it was one of the fastest walks we have had together. We had only been outside for a minute or two when the first fire works (who were set off by some kids) startled him.
On our way, (we always go the same way in the evening in winter) there were more fireworks set off and not knowing what the hell was happening he bolted for home in record time.
On New Years Eve we never put the TV on, we sit and talk really about everything and nothing. This year there was a nice change in the routine, we had a link with my brother who had gone through the New Years Eve procedure 12 hours earlier, we talked for about one hour.
At midnight all hell breaks lose here in Germany everybody, well nearly everybody dashes outside to let their fireworks off and with doing so they let the New Year in.
My wife and I went outside to watch the show and our neighbours afterwards invited us in for a drink. They had invited friends around for the evening and all in all with my wife and myself we were 8 persons. We only intended to stay for a half an hour!!! We got to bed at four in the morning. That’s what I mean when I said, “ Things sometimes never work out the way you thought they would.“
This morning I was up at half past seven (to take the dog out) I intended to go for a run this morning but I must admit I am na…...!! My wife got up at quarter to ten, had a cup of tea a slice of toast, so that she could take her medicine and then went back to bed. She is still there and it is now two in the afternoon.
Well this is the start of the second year with my Blog I intend and I hope to keep it going, probability is that I shall make a few changes this year to try and make it more interesting.
The photo, PROST! NEU JAHR.
Take care out there were ever you are. Tshüss

Nice photo, good New Years Eve update. We never got out of the house yesterday, Linda was feeling pretty Jaded. The weather was great so that at least meant we could sit outside. John arrived home at 7 pm and went straight to bed. Keep the blog going through the year.

Your blogs are quickly catching up to Broadstreet as a daily must read and full marks to the candid way in which you write them.

WELL DONE and all the very best for 2009.
