Oct. 4 - Autumn

Well, well...autumn's here and still so many things to do. Better get it done before the first snow tells me it's too late...guess I'll start with the booze.

Oct. 3 - Zandvoort

Last Sunday we got what we came for: one hell of a race during the opening of the A1 Grand Prix season at Zandvoort. Jeroen Bleekemolen showed everyone that he's probably a better choice than his predecessor. Good for him he got the opportunity to do it, hope he can show it again in Czechia next weekend.

Robin clearly enjoyed the race, good we brought our ear plugs cause man not only did they drive outrageously fast, the noise was fabulous (read: deafening :) )

Oct. 3 - Loosdrecht

Last weekend, Robin and me paid a "blitz visit" to the Netherlands. The weather was ex-cel-lent, frikandellen tasted great, so did the beer and (for Robin) the cola.

Friday evening after a long drive from Cologne we made it to Leerdam where we met up with Leen & Trudie, Marloes and Nico & Tieneke. We hit the sack early as we were dead-tired. Saturday, we started our day with coffee at a nice coffee shop where the folks spoke Swedish after which we drove up to Loosdrecht, rented a "sloep" and hit the water with Marco, Chloe, Maarten, and Japie. Fiko and his son joined us later. It was great to spend some time with los amigos. Many laughs, good times.
