Thanks Dinesh :)
lol
Thanks Wally :) Yeah, i think it' looks good for now
Sergio, remind me tomorrow evening to post a photo of the cable jungle behind the home theater in our second home. You'll see you have nothing to worry, there are worst 'cable managers'...
Sad and alone, after a long and difficult day. Angie just called (Skype & Cam) from Austrian / Italian border where she and her friends stopped for the night on their way to Rome.
I'll drive tomorrow morning to Solingen to our small second home, have to be there couple of days because of this not-so-pleasant-anymore-work of mine. Have to be there around 10AM so I have to start early; although it's mostly no speed limit autobahn and I have a fast car, it's still 500 kilometers, about 320 miles and Friday morning traffic can cause some surprises. Back home in Leipzig latest on Sunday, giving the nurse some days off and taking care of my mother-in-law.
I think I can relate to that. You certainly have seen them all.

today i have to pack to go back to tn again for more house hunting over the weekend. sorry for the recent inactivity things have been busy here
Started at 5:30am from Leipzig, arrived in Solingen 500 km (320 miles) away at 9:20AM. Not too bad time, considering I had an almost half an hour break on the road to to fill the tank and get some breakfast.
Found apartment here in terrible condition; we had borrowed it to a son of a friend visiting from Finland with his girlfriend and it seems they do not know how to wash the dishes or clean and they seemingly like to eat meals from the floor. Would like to post a pic to show this chaos but I am too ashamed to do that.
First thing to do was to call cleaners. Had a short meeting at 10AM, then to pub to let cleaners to do their job (nice excuse). Promised to stay away at least a couple of hours, so sitting here ATM with my second whisky and laptop.
Dinner tonight, one official reception tomorrow afternoon and early Sunday morning a nice drive first to Hanover to pick two friends of mine from an early train from Leipzig, then a nice day at CeBIT IT fair and late in the evening drive back home.
Feeling a bit bored...

EDIT: Just after posting above, I got a call from one of the friends I should meet early Sunday morning to go to the fair. It seems that we experienced CeBIT goers have made a major mistake in our plans: traditionally we have always visit the fair on last day, Sunday. My mate had noticed he'd lost his eTicket so he had printed it again and only now noticed that this year, first time in CeBIT history, the fair closes already on Saturday.
Took my complimentary ticket from the briefcase and checked, it's true. Called already and cancelled my participation to this reception tomorrow, going to fair with mates is this time more important than any work related stuff, so picking up the guys already 8:30 tomorrow morning from train and going to the fair.
How the h*** did we not notice that earlier? And why is it that they have shortened the fair?
