REVIEW 2009  December 2009     
 

Right now the big climate conference is going on in Copenhagen. 110 prime ministers are there, so hopefully they will find solutions to the problems. - Some of the family events, 2009, were: A very nice travel to a town called Monsteras, about 200 km north of here, where Kerstin’s brother-in-law, Jarl-Ejnar, turned 75, in April. – In May, we were invited to Steen’s sister Jette’s, grandchild Frederikke’s fine confirmation. We met all in our Danish family leg. - In June we enjoyed the visit of our American family, Mikael & Liz and their four children. They were in Sweden for three weeks, so could be together although they had a heavy program. For the children, it was the first travel to Europe, so it was exiting for them and for us. – Our traditional biking tour with Kerstin’s sister and her husband, along German rivers, took us this year to our river no 8: Ruhr. The river is very clean and we did not see anything that normally associates with the Ruhr-district’s heavy industry. Our trip started and ended in Arnsberg. In the end of the trip there were ”Schützenfest”, going on. A ”Schützenfest is a traditional festival surrounding a target shooting competition, in the culture of Germany. It celebrates with processions and for all, musical entertainment, especially brass bands. – Back home in Sweden, we enjoyed the visit of our friends from Luxembourg: Jetty & Guy. - During their short visit, especially Jetty showed us that we are living in a house influenced by rather strong, from the ground coming, electrical up-streams. We checked the house with a “Y”-formed stick, the same type as one use to search for underground water. We found many and strong veins. I know it sounds like fictitious nonsense, but it works. Now we have placed a cobber plate under Steen’s PC-chair. His consuming of the medical ”Atarax”, as he had taken for many years, without knowing why, but a medical that stopped the daily attacks, has dropped to the half. Any scientific explanation is not available, but a man in Switzerland has described the phenomena. I think the problem is similar to what is called ”electric allergy”. – Steen has got a new PC. This time it is with a Vista operating system. Not alone that, but a “Vista 64 bits”. It has not been a success. Much time has gone with computer trouble. – In July Hanne Seifert turned 70 year. Hanne is married to Steen’s fellow-student Carl Seifert. We were on the fine feast held in “Open Field Museum's” restaurant in Kongens Lyngby, Denmark. - Young at heart, gets its too, through the purchase of a radio-controlled helicopter Steen has had an outlet for his flight needs. The challenge of controlling a helicopter is fun, but the crash landing is unfortunately, as yet, widespread. - We wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
