SINTERKLAAS 2 (31 december 2003)
On 28th December I wrote here that on New Year's eve the family would hold
a Sinterklaas party, and I bet you're dying
to hear more about it.
Please don't ask me to publish the rhymes - the
details are too embarassing to be published on these pages. But I can show
you the "surprises".
From left to right:
- my younger daughter's room in miniature.
There may be a connection with the fact that her room is not permanently in
a state that could be described as "tidy".
- a chess computer made of
cardboard that I received because I am supposed to have something with these
machines.
- a cardboard picture for my wife that symbolizes the distress
caused by the construction work carried out under our apartment.
- a
table lamp decorated with pictures of my elder daughter's favourite television
series Friends.
Needless to mention that the family had a great
time making and receiving the rhymes and the "surprises".
