<p>Steven - I´ll take mine "mit"!</p> <p>Good Afternoon,</p> <p>I spent the morning in a lecture on Parkinson´s disease, which was very informative and gave me a little comfort. The prospects seem now not to be as dreadful as I feared and that I will have quite a number of enjoyable years ahead of me before things will turn to the worse. I still don´t touch a soldering iron and putting an N scale train onto the rails is not yet possible, but somehow I will eventually manage a more or less normal life. What still eats me up is that all my dreams of moving to a better place in a better country have now been flushed down the drain.</p> <p>We had chicken fricassee for lunch and while Petra tried her best to give it some sort of taste, I am afraid having to confess I did not enjoy the meal. I had hoped to go for a walk and sneak into the nearest burger place, but St. Peter decided this was not a good idea and sent lots of rain in our direction! No burger for me, so I am glad Steven brought the Bratwurst dogs along!</p> <p>Instead of getting a little bit of exercise, I started to watch old model railroading vids on Youtube - this time focusing on German built layouts.</p> <p>Here is a nice one showing a Marklin layout in a winter setting, which I found quite impressive:</p> <p><iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/J4BgRh_3Oao" width="425" height="350"></iframe></p> <p>In the long run I may have to go back to the old Marklin tin plate stuff, as it is a bullet proof system, suitable for folks with limited dexterity. We shall see!</p> <p>Have a good one!</p>
