Living on the edge

Thu, 04/17/2003 - 3:06am

This morning I took a risk -- I walked to Chess without a coat.


Since last summer I don't have a summerjacket anymore. It got ruined when I fell while bicycling downhill in the Ardennen, and I tried to call somebody on the mobile. The phone was still okay, me too, but the jacket was torn. In the winter my coat is wonderful: nice and warm, but these days it feels a bit awkward to wear it when I see people walking in shorts and T-shirts.

Easter Bunny not dead

Thu, 04/17/2003 - 1:35am

The (ex-) Iraq Minister of Information became very popular on many websites.

If he says the Easter Bunny isn't dead, it must be true.

Something wrong?Is there something wrong here?

Basically in the same category as the mirror from a while ago.

Botermarkt

Tue, 04/15/2003 - 5:56pm

The tables outside. To be honest this picture looks better than it is in real.What a wonderful weather! It's almost midnight and still warm outside.

We went for a beer at the Botermarkt. Somehow we picked the only pub that closed at 23.00 o'clock already, so at the end we were the only table left outside.

At the Grote Markt they're building a fair; it will start on Friday.

Balkan Air Tours

Tue, 04/15/2003 - 4:29am

Good news perhaps for the summer. On the website of the Dutch embassy in Bulgaria this press-release:

"Bulgarian flagcarrier Balkan Air Tour will launch direct flights to Amsterdam twice a week as of 4 May. This became possible after the company signed a cooperation agreement with KLM Royal Dutch Airlines. The agreement allows for direct flights to most KLM and partners' destinations and for flights with a stopover to cities across Europe, USA, Canada, South Africa and the Far East."

See the original press release too (notice the typical Dutch photo). They are looking for pilots too.

Picked up Milena

Mon, 04/14/2003 - 9:50am

I just went to the trainstation to pick up Milena! She'll stay here a week.

It's great weather for a holiday; at Chess somebody brought us all ice-creams.



The previous time David and Milena were here was in August 2002.

Colleagues

Fri, 04/11/2003 - 5:36am

When I started working here a month ago I wasn't the only Net.Footworker starting that day. Manuel and Edo -- two ex-collegues from Net.Footworks -- joined Chess the same day.


Yesterday Tibor e-mailed us: he made up his mind and per July 1st he'll start at Chess.


So slowly but surely the old crew is getting back together... very nice!

Early bird

Wed, 04/09/2003 - 1:16am

A noisy bird woke me up at 7.00 o'clock. An early bird or in Bulgarian 'rano buden sam'.

Yesterday evening I submitted my third exercise of Internet Programming. It's a nice but strange feeling to be done with an assignment. Since Thursday evening I've been working on it almost full-time, and now it's over.
