<p>Good Morning,</p> <p>as you folks over the Big Pond have changed to DST, we now have moved closer together by one hour ... [:-^]. We will move forward our clocks by 1 hour in two weeks time. As usual, Europe is a little late.</p> <p>Zoe, I´ll have a Sunday breakfast, a stack of pancakes, eggs, sausages, buttered toast and a mug of coffee, please.</p> <p>I am glad for each night the telephone is not ringing and I have to grab my go-bag. I still don´t sleep well - can´t remember sleeping through a whole night for ages now. Petra tells me I am showing signs of wear and I seem to be aging more rapidly.Although I still dream of moving over the Big Pond to more friendly territories, I don´t think I will be able to cope physically with such a move anymore - sigh!</p> <p>Ray - with all the "hot" items you are working on, having a fire extinguisher handy seems to be a good thing [swg]</p> <p>Ken - I am not really losing interest in model railroading, it is just that I cannot concentrate on it enough to actually do something. My "benchwork" needs a coat of paint and I could start to lay some track, but as sonn as I pull myself together to start doing something, my mind wanders off. I even don´t have the nerve to leaf through some old MR copies. I am sure that this "paralysis" will eventually go away.</p> <p>Barry - some 20 years ago, my parents toured Canada and actually met the person , for whom my father intended to work for in your town. My dad told me his name then, but I have forgotten it. My parents never regretted not having emigrated to Canada, as things improved quite a bit during the late 1950´s. Leaving your country toting along three little kids is not easy...</p> <p>I am still shocked by the pictures and reports we get from Japan. I am just glad that earthquakes and tsunamis are hardly known in my area.</p> <p>Y´ all have a good Sunday!</p>
