Great to hear about your fine health and to boot your improvement in chess. A lot of kudos to you ! It is such a nice feeling, n´est pas !?

Here I think i have catched an old fashioned cold, which happens very rare... So patience ans staminna is reguired ;) And in these times the football is a good consolation !.... Right now it seems all the big teams are cruising through to the quarters, but you never now what will happen in the next game..

The Spanish shooters seemed to lack confidence. After the first one hit the post, the rest were rather timid kicks.

Thanks for the wishes <virginmind> and happily my cold has vanished. A great relief.....Kasparov has also sometimes lost two games, so you are in good company ;)

Looking forward to the quarterfinals and it has been nice without any drama for a couple of days !

Chess and some movies (this time a few of Zinnemann's) in the past days, and looking forward to yet another year ending. Let's hope the next one will bring peace and better feelings.

Also Christmas Greetings to you and all the best wishes for the New Year, which hope fully will be more peacefull. To good health too, to both of us.

A very deserved win to the argentines who finally brought home the trophy after all these years. And yes this certain Messi is a heck of a player who finally made it before retiring. Kudos to him and the whole team !

A good championship on the pitch, is finally over.

Thanks for visiting og Glædelig Jul samt et godt Nyt År til dig og din kone !

Yes, i am danish and lives north of Aarhus, our second biggest city. At the countryside in a great house with my lovely wife, whom I have known for almost 30 years....Quite interesting your wife is studying danish ! A language many find difficult to speak.

So say hello to her from me and may you a great Christmas Time, as well as I can imagine you still are celebrating the long awaited victory !

Cheers !

I hear you about Danish being difficult to speak. I can hear that some things are so difficult to pronounce, including Copenhagen!

Wow, great to hear you get so much pleasure form wtaching <Badehotellet>. And the same here. We simply love it too and I would strecht it to say, that it is the serie that gives me the most pleasure. All the characters are so loveable. Also Weyse ;),in his own way.And we have all the seasons on DVD, just waiting for another view.

May you have a great day in Argentina, which ironicalle comes from silver, but that is definately not the case in these days ;)

Oh, I'm not in Argentina. I live in the United States (Nashville, Tennessee). I go to Argentina every two or three years.

I am Argentinian but also an American citizen and I love my adoptive country too. At this point, I have spent half of my life in each.

This weekend is going to be brutally cold around here. Well, what *I* call brutally cold (single digits Farenheit). Maybe you have different standards!

There may be some snow too. Because Nashville does not regularly have snow in winter, the city does not have the equipment to clear the roads. That means we can get snowed in. This morning we'll do a grocery run to make sure we have everything we need.

Sorry, I forgot you lived in Tennesse. Hit by the footballfever, I guess ;)

And a smart move that you do a grocery run, before it may be too late. So best of luck with that.

Five minuttes ago, we have just got our nice christmas tree inside the house, waiting to be decorated tomorrow, were my wifes holiday starts. 9 days with cosyness and the like ahead....We are on some ponis very spoiled her in Denmark, compared to many other countries. Even the weather is not very cold, 7 plus celsius.

And a Merry Christmas to you too, dear friend.

Here the tree is decorated so fine, Hannah having a welldeserved nap, before we shall eat and sharing christmas presents. The Disney Show has just ended and all is good.

And certainly the same to you.

A Year with health and joy, filled with creative challenges and inner peace.

Great to see you in my little house again. And certainly all the best wishes to you and your loved ones for the new year.With good health and a lot of inspiration.

Looking forward to further exchanges with you in the new year!

Allways good to hear from you. And I am so glad and relived to hear that your future looks bright enough. So no more Panadol and good they apparently found the right diagnosis ! So I send you all my best thoughts and wishes for further improvement with your health !

I still have my "dizzyness", colon issues and a small bladder to cope with, but somehow I manage and even so good, that today I am turning into a 70 year old man ! ;) Quite a high number, I may say.

Hannah has found some excellent takeaway, some tapas and that is the celebration, besides from friends, who gonna be there on mail and phone.

Life is still good and I guess the spring will arrive early this year, though it is cold outside for the moment. Which fits very well with the day (or rather, night, 23.55) these 70 years ago were a big snowstorm was outside. And I actually love it when it snows ;)

That was it and may you enjoy your sunday in Iasi and with many hugs to you and your Maria !
