Well, the last weekend wasn’t that nice as the one before. It all started somewhere around last Wednesday when I suddenly was confronted with a terrible pain in my right side. It turned out that I got a bruised rib and I am still wondering how I ever did get it. I couldn’t blame Marion,…

So far a nice weekend
Even though Marion is not around this weekend (the poor girl has to work), it has been a rather nice weekend so far. Last Friday it started after work with a company BBQ. This time no photo’s. In the morning half way to the train station to travel to my work, I discovered that I…
The Asian Link
Yesterday on Facebook I made a remark about the Asian_Link towards my friend Sue Matthews (from the US). Marion asked me later on what this Asian_Link was. I explained it to her, but thought that it would also be a nice subject for an article here on my weblog. When we talk these days about…

Well, today more then one subject in a single post. No need to make three separate postings :) Yesterday someone claimed on MSN that I mostly likely during this weekend, while Marion is not here, I would live on fast food and microwave stuff.

The new date was yesterday… and as I had chosen to keep the tickets (and not have them repaid) yesterday was the…
About Madurodam and the Kuhrhaus
One of things Marion and I still wanted to visit was Madurodam in the city of Den Haag. For those who are not familiar with Madurodam… Madurodam is large open air collection of all kind well known Dutch buildings and vehicles rebuilt on a scale of 1:25. It looked like to become a very nice…
Suske & Wiske again
I have written before about the fact that I am collecting “Suske & Wiske” books. For that don’t know, “Suske & Wiske” are a comic series made in Belgium, but which are popular in many countries these days. To be honest, since my move to Heemskerk I have not done much with my “Suske &…
