3rd December 2020

In 2020 we said goodbye to a much-loved institution, which we and many of our friends had visited, especially back in the 1990s, as Tegel Airport in Berlin was replaced by the new Berlin Brandenburg airport. Based entirely around hexagons, it was mathematically exciting as well as a gateway to a great country.

Here are some photos of our visits:

1st December 2024

Happy Advent! It's not often the 1st December is also the 1st Sunday in Advent, so we get to open our advent calendar AND light the first candle on the Advent Ring. Alt-text for the young people: a picture of an old-looking man (who frighteningly is only 31) about to set fire to a complicated construction of flammable tinsel and coat hangers. Welcome to year X of our Advent Calendar (it's probably 22 or so) and as usual we will be sharing the best of Christmas preparations and traditions as they come to us. Place your bets now on how long it will be until Adam is more than 24 hours late posting on the blog. Since we have a Blue Peter picture today, here in detail (from the "Blue Peter Make Cook And Look Book" 1978) is how to make your own Advent Ring, and for the girls, some Tinsel Birds.
