This blog is simply about anything that my mind tells the fingers to jot down. Many times they come late at night, others at work and occasionally in the toilet heading for that big drop. Most entries are about life in the "land of chocolate" and things that I love to do - mountain biking, photography, snowboarding and a bit of running.

Ciao 2007, Welcome 2008

After been talking on the phone, an old friend my University days in UK finally drove down from Luxemburg on the new year eve. At least we would not be alone at home celebrating the beginning of 2008 and the end of 2007.

It's ironic that we were sitting together after almost 10 years since we left Uni and watching a program on Spice Girls reunion ... sad lol. It brought back the old memories the younger days in England and Spice Girls at the start of their stardom. How time flies.

Compared to last year, it's a quieter celebration here in the town I live. Except for some small personal fireworks, there was nothing else on stage. Perhaps in Zurich there were some fireworks in display. I would be surprise if there was also nothing.

With some cheers, and a few drinks of champaigne and icea tea, we welcomed the new year. And we welcomed it again for the second time at the strike of midnight in London which was one hour behind us, ha ha ha.

Just after one AM, we all slowly retired to bed, ready to face new challenges in 2008.
