I just discovered that the slide show with photo’s on top with widget-menu is not working any more. No idea what the problem is yet. If I cannot fix it fast I will be looking for another plugin. I was not very happy with configuration of the current one (way too complex to add new…

So far, so good…
I really like the changes I have pushed through recently to my weblog. And I also get positive reactions from the folks that write here as well. But there is one thing I still don’t like. And that is you cannot see right away how many comments there are on an article. I am working…
Restaurant “Nieuwe Koningin”
Tonight Marion and I had dinner at restaurant “Nieuwe Koningin” in the city of Haarlem. It is not the first time we were here. Returning means that we really liked it there. And again we were not disappointed. They say that the first impression is very important. You feel directly very welcome when you arrive….
Mastic Tears
Sitting lazy after an extreme busy day at my work on the couch in my living room. Eyes closed. Soft music on the background. Trying to clear my mind. With the first sips of my glass of Mastic Tears a welcome warmth flows through my body. In my head I start to hear the waves…
The project is live…
At the company where I work we do quite some projects. And some projects are really big. So it is a great moment when a project is finished and goes live. Sometimes the project-manager is so happy about this that he or she does something nice or fun for the people who worked on it….

This weekend Sanne was visiting us. For those who don’t know, Sanne and Marion are already since they went to school very close friends. And nowadays I am happy that I can also call her a very good friend of mine. Sanne and I share a passion together: Chess. Now several years ago Sanne asked…
“Het omgekeerde land”
Today when I did my groceries I noticed that a new album of my favourite comic-hero’s Suske and Wiske was available. Of course I had to buy it. The title of this new album is “Het omgekeerde land” (in English: “The reverse land”) and it is issue 336 in the series (first print 6 September…
A change to my weblog…
Something will change Until now the articles on my weblog were written by myself (and every now and then an entry written by Marion). This will change. I have given editor rights to Marissa and Sanne, so they can publish here articles here. On their own request they want me to review their articles before…
“Wonderwaan”
Recently I received the book “Wonderwaan EdgeZero 2015” by mail (Amazon France for a Dutch book? Okay…). “Wonderwaan” is a magazine about Science Fiction, Fantasy and Horror written by Dutch writers. The magazine contains quirky themes and equally quirky editors who push writers to share the best of themselves with us. “Wonderwaan” publishes fantastic stories,…
Jose
Two days ago we were informed that during the last night completely unexpected Jose Lopes passed away. Jose was an colleague of mine who was working as tester in the IT department where I also am working, although he worked for the Front Office and I for the BI/Middleware team. The news stroke us very…
