Re: Boxing Day Open Thread (4.00 / 2)

Zweitenweinachstag hier. Still digesting the visit from Berlin, which sets a new adventure afoot. But mostly i'm thinking about poor Fran, who has new software to organize and change photos, which is to my limited understanding, unending.

And me still thinking last night's thread is full of wonder, from so many directions, where ET excells.

Re: Boxing Day Open Thread (4.00 / 2)

LOL, CH - you know as you left out the h in Zweitenweinachstag I read it as Wein insteadt of Weih. So the whole word would mean approx. second day of wine nights :-) - sometime Freudian slips of the fingers can tell a story, or just the crazyness of my mind.

Well, I do not know yet if it is poor Fran, as the software is new and interessting and challenging.

Leaving out the weihnachts H was unintentional, but when my editors discovered it they refused to allow me to change it, and i was forced to enhjoy the 3rd botthle with them.

Well, as Weihe means to sanctify or consecrate, and as far as I know the catholic churche does that with wine, I guess a third bottle is okay. :-)
