Germanic induced amnesia?




Hello people! Bet you'd thought I'd forgotten this month's thrilling update? No! Though It wouldn't have been a surprise after the very recent visit of Clemens. Yes, just a few weeks after Oliver, Clemens arrived, armed with a litre bottle of Glenlivet 15 year old malt whisky. Of course, the bottle was on death row with us-and Tavis- about! But at least it didn't have to wait long to go. Apart from that bottle, several pints were downed in Kirkcaldy, Kinghorn, Burntisland, Aberdour....you get the picture. Still, what are holidays for apart from enjoying yourself? Going for a few days up the highlands tomorrow actually - fresh air, walking, thinking, chilling, yeah ok, drinking. Will take my mind off the upcoming turmoil in my working life. We have been given an end date at the firm of 28 October, so only a few weeks until my 13 year service at America's finest (note the sarcasm) company comes to the end!!

Here a couple of photos - of Clemens and Tavis in top drinking form, of a group of lovely seals here in the Firth of Forth, and of Arja my colleague, who has already left the sinking ship and had her last day last week, with yours truly (was mucking about with the effects on that one, couldn't make myself pretty though..). Bis zum nächsten Mal!!
