Nice to be back! My vacation was wayyyyyy to short! I did not have time to see everyone i wanted to. It started out pretty bad, as i had to break into
my own house because of a faulty door lock! Spent the next day fixing broken window and faulty door lock.
My deck is coming along nice got about 3/4 of the decking put in. It looks awesome to say the least. You can only do so much from 8am to 12 am. After
that it's just too hot to continue.
Also, there were an increadible number of Dutch tourist this summer in Ardèche. Much more than other years me thinks.
All in all a great holiday but just too short. Next year i'm taking a month off! It's a minimum. I'll try to post a picture or two of the deck later
in the week!

Hey Badchild, welcome back, it's been a bit quiet around here lately.
You missed out on all the fun at zappa.com. Trendy had one of his forum tantrums and it got quite messy for a while but then Mikey deleted all his
crazy threads and at the moment Trendy is keeping a real low profile. Ho hum. |
Yeah! i saw that yesterday....I also saw a threat by GZ to shut the forum down....It's about time someone stepped in and quietted down the BS!

Oh Badchild: there are ALWAYS a lot of Dutch tourists in France. The only way to escape them is by going to a Nordic country, or perhaps buying an
ANWB camping guide and NOT visiting any camping in it.

Well, i've never seen so many blond haired people at the grocery store as i've seen this summer. And they talk real funnily too !Sort of an
English/gibberish.
Oh and my buddy the barman said that the dutch drink their Pastis "Straight up" without water!??! I mean were talking 45° alcohol here, sheesh!

Ah! That explains why Dutchmen are usually such a nuisiance on holiday! And if you think their English is bad, try their French, pronouncing
vous as vows.
(On holiday I refrained from communicating with the French. I preferred to sleep late and so miss out on my turn to fetch the pain at the
camping store.)

What is it with the Camping/Dutch thing?? Do you all dream of going on safaris or is it because for the Dutch everywhere else (outside of Dutchyland)
is wilderness!?!
Or is it something more Eco-Nomique!

Economic, I suppose. And freedom to bring your own food. Can't get any peanut butter in France.

I have two major assignments for maths and atmospheric science due on Monday as well as an English essay (on Orwell and Saussure). I've done the
assignments but i haven't quite finished the essay yet. It's after 2am.
Those represent the emotions of essay writing.

All the best of luck and inspiration to you... I know how hair-raising essays can be... and what a silly mistakes you can make...
Grandma has been doing voluntary work for over 50 years, among others as First Aid worker and as member of the neighborhood council. In 1983 a
non-profit organisation was founded that hired small buses, to transport the elderly and disabled. She has been volunteering for that from the start,
until the day of the 25th jubilee, both in the board and visiting new subscribers. She's now 84, and is planning to go back to volunteering in case
she'll miss it.

I've grown a beard, and my hair, this year and it makes me look older.

Poly and Badchild: for laughs, make a picture of yourself right after you've eaten. Especially when you've just eaten spaghetti.

They banned Zombie at the Zappa-forum?? Whoa! Seems like Admin finally got round to doing what he SHOULD do.
Punky: it took us ages to convince my father he looked quite ten years younger if he shaved his moustache.
Great to see you again!
