Well, I thought I might give an update. Basically there's nothing new, except for some of the trivial stuff - but here's what is keeping me busy these days.

The phone still doesn't work. I have switched operator (to ip-based telephony) but the number is only ported on October 16th :o(. But that leaves me a little time to find a new phone to replace the old, broken one.

I wrote earlier, that my brother-in-law came from Portugal with Kimie and me this summer to get a job. He's been sleeping on our sofa the past 1½ months, but now he's moving out. It'll be nice for him to get a place of his own - and nice for me to get the living room back.

I'm still doing the Kung Fu thing. Last Thursday I took a kick to the elbow while holding a punching pillow, and in 2 minutes it had inflated to something like double size. It didn't hurt much at the time and now it's back to normal but with a nice blue/violet colour. Also we did some hardening excercises yesterday- basically repetetetive hitting of the same areas on arms, shins, thighs and torso to harden them so you won't feel as much pain when you get hit for real - I'm sort of bruised, especially the shins (ouch!), but "no pain, no gain", I believe the saying goes.

Oh, and bridge (cards) started last Wednesday. Christian and I did rather poorly, but we sort of expected it (we're not cut out for the type of tournament we played). We're hoping to do a lot better in the next tournament.

And finally! We have the ski-trip planned for winter. We're going to Samöens (http://www.ski1.dk/Destinationer/Hygge/Samöens.aspx) by train (which) and staying in a cabin. I cant' wait! And we convinced Heli and Thomas to go this year. Don't know about Heli, but it'll be Thomas' first time ... we need to bring a video camera this year :o). We're propably going to be 10 this year, which will be great, the more the merrier!

Ok, that's it for now.
