Welcome to European Tribune. It's gone a bit quiet around here these days, but it's still going.

Thanks, PeWi -- that's really incredible.  It's good to see you again.  We were wondering where you were -- Jerome even posted a bridge blogging, but it wasn't the same (no offense Jerome!).

Thanks for the kind words Izzy, I have been lurking mostly, blogging steals so much time - and can create dependencies, and I do have two jobs, and a family and a degree to do, and the tax man is coming in a week...

Maybe I should set up a Blogger Anonymous....

I tried to go cold turkey, but then when I finally got away from the computer, they had finished the Christmas dinner...

Oh, wow -- can't argue with that!  Glad everything's okay, though!!

The tax man in January seems a bit harsh right after the holidays.  At least ours isn't until mid-April.  It's always sort of a freak-out at our house.  Every year I get that Kinks' song, Sunny Afternoon, stuck in my head.  Do you know it?

...save me, save me, save me from this squeee-eeeze...

It is the British tax man, if you are self employed as I am (partly), you have to hand in your tax return by the end of January, and as a last minute person, I do it very last second.

I did know the the Kinks songs, but never really listened to it, with the tax man and so.

"Ice cooled beer", sigh, where is the summer, "help me sail away..."
