Wednesday 24th, Heiliger Abend, Christmas Eve, 12dg, with clouds giving away to some sun here in England, forecasting for my mountain at home, a dusting of new snow. Freeze-thaw conditions (max 8°C on Tue night, min -8°C on Thu night. Freezing level dropping to below 1000m Friday and again on Sunday.. Yesterday here was a cool day, fine in the most, with a very lazy wind that just went right through you. Michael was my town tour guide in my quest for "things" so most of my rats and mice list ticked. Nice lunch at the Lock Stock and Barrel, and then a little more retail including a mad dash for a hat as it was raining, and my hair does not do rain, especially when I am away from home. Today I am going to try an auction house that was recommended to me by a chap reading a model railway mag in WH Smith's .. strike while the iron is hot is a good motto for me at the moment. Here begins the start of the big dispersal. When I return in January then it will start in ernest. In all honesty, at this moment, I am feeling quite positive about all the possibilities that today's visit could have for a lot of the history that is boxed and waiting in the spare bedroom at home. We are having a little celebration tonight, in true European tradition on Christmas eve as I fly home tomorrow morning... Incoming guests, so I must. Happy Christmas Eve, Heiliger Abend where ever you are and for what ever you do. I could say drink responsibly and don't over eat, but then who am I to say something as boring as that... The fun Police ??? Not in this life time. Enjoy
