First Sponsorship Day 2007 + Rugby World Cup Final

Today was our first “Sponsorship Day 2007”: a celebration for everyone giving financial support to our acquisitions related to our new flat!
Roughly half a year ago we asked people to take a sponsorship for one (or more) of our furnitures. And today we had a little dedication party for those guys ;-)
An idea inspired by the Berlin Museum of Natural History and it’s sponsorship program (German webpage).
Btw. there are still objects looking for a sponsor or a personal godfather if you like…


Afterwards we watched the Rugby World Cup Final (England vs. South Africa) along with a number of people not being able to state a single rule in rugby… but hey, you gotta be open minded!

Discworld – The Light Fantastic [Update]

The second book in the Discworld series. A continuation of the advantures of well known wizard Rincewind.

Unfortunately I am still waiting for it’s delivery… since the first time it was sent to me, it ended up at some mysterious Mrs. or Mr. Grtjber’s place (according to Amazon) … as you might guess from the name its a neighbour I do not really have …
Since there also doesn’t seem to be real person behind this name wanting to hand over the parcel to me, I am now waiting for an replacement …

More to read as soon as I get it and finish reading… ;-)

[Update]

I am done … and it’s been another great pleasure! Or to sum up in other words: I’m gonna buy the next one too!

Discworld – The Colour of Magic

Another book done… This time a classic from Terry Pratchett: The first Discworld novel “The Colour of Magic”. Funny story about a wizard and a tourist along with it’s living luggage experiencing all sorts of things except the expected.
Some sort of fantasy novel as you might have guessed already…

New faces

(700x1000mm each)

Meet “Walter”, “The Dude” and “Donny” … guys/pictures now decorating our hallway, inspired by/stolen from Thierry Noir.
He painted his “Mauer-Eierköpfe” (Berlin Wall Egg-Heads) on the Berlin wall starting 1990, I painted our’s this weekend ;-).
These were still not the last frames to be filled in our “new” flat …
