Amat victoria curam!

In an old shoebox at my moms' I found this old kindergarten picture. I am trying to recover and to restore it...

What the F happened with Sharper Image? (They filed for bankruptcy today). It always has been one of my must go to stores. OK I didn't buy anything - uh maybe nobody did... ;-)

From Merel en Marijn I received a great Craft Thermal long sleeved crew for on the bike. It helps to keep me warm and comfy during these cold days...

Philips published his anual report 2007 with a special website. This is een high tech way which shows that Philips is really making progress with innovation. I really like their latest introductions in terms of design and functionality.

Across the street from our hotel is the Victoria & Albert Museum which has one of the finest decorative art collections in the world including a Leighton and some Jacob Sang glasses.

The 39 steps is a new comedy which uses John Buchan's story and Alfred Hitchcock adaptation if it. Only 4 actors play all the roles while using minimal stage props. It was really fun.

The weather in London was terrific so it was time to (re) visit some nice sites (Tower) and to do some serious shopping. The first ever Abercrombie in Europe on Burlington was so crowed that we decided to leave the hour long queue for the cashiers. Jermynstreet was nice and so was Lilly White sports department store.

Joop van den Ende, good for more than $2 billion and ine of the richest persons on this planet, won the Bingo yesterday. He won a brand new Mitsubishi ($15.000). Unfortunately for him: his own company organized the Bingo, so he cannot collect his prize. Poor Joop, I guess he is doomed to keep on driving his Maybach instead... :-)

Still one of the best of the best. Not only as a soccer player but as a person as well.

I had to buy a new motor jacket and pants. I have chosen Rukka this Finnish company has the most advanced high tech clothing you can buy. Kevlar, Goretex, Cordura, Outlast: you name it it's in there. Making the most safe, waterproof breathable clothing on the world.

Players of Ivory Coast after their defeat at the African Soccer Tournament. I guess they lost because they had an other game on their mind... ;-)
