For a long time already, Marjoleins grandpa is having trouble with his health. He has been in and out of hospitals quite a few times over the past years. On multiple occasions we visited him and expected this to be his last hospital visit. And every time, the man again was able to get out of the hospital and live his life.

Every few months, there is a small local book market here in Woudenberg. Last saturday, another market was held. As every other time, I was there to have a good look at the books available.

Elections in The Netherlands is always very interesting. With a majority of the votes having been counted, I guess conclusions can now be made. Even though the christian democrats lost votes, they still got the most votes. Their partner parties however lost a lot of votes and we will not see them back in the government.

Spam is a big problem, and everyone knows it. Not just the spam you get in your e-mail, these days spammers also write bots to find discussion forums and post their spam there. There will soon be a solution for the latter problem.

Yes, the site is rebooted. Slighty later than planned, but you can't have it all.
