Wasn't too bad a day. Although it was meant to be a day off and was called by work asking if I fancied a few hours work. Wasn't going to allow this upper respiratory infection I have rob me of the opportunity to earn a little bit more cash. What are antibiotics for if they can't help you push yourself that little bit harder. LOL
What a handsome figure of a dragon. No wonder I fall madly in love with the Alani Dragon now, the avatar, it's a gorgeous dragon picture.

Seeing Abraham, cheers!

STRANGE DUTCH CELEBRATIONS: SEEING ABRAHAM & SARAH



I've already written about Dutch circle parties, which are weird in themselves! But imagine if it’s a special birthday, say you turn 50… believe me, it’s about to get a whole lot freakier!

So, you’re turning 50. Maybe you want to keep it quiet, have a small meal with the family, something like that. Live in the Netherlands? NO SUCH LUCK!

Your home, garden or place of work (or all three!) will be decorated by your ‘loving’ friends and family with posters, banners, balloons and a life-sized doll of YOU. 

 ( see links for examples )

Turning 50 in the Netherlands is a BIG BLOODY DEAL!

Apparently it means you are old enough and wise enough to have ‘seen Abraham’ or if you’re a woman – old enough to have ‘seen Sarah’ and your whole street will know about it! The names come from the biblical figures, Abraham and his wife Sarah. According to the bible, Abraham lived until he was 175 and Sarah until she was 127… so if you make it to 50 you’re deemed old enough to have ‘wisdom through experience’.

Would have been good, Sander, had I somehow been miraculously infused with wisdom on my 50th. Maybe I'm to receive it after the next fifty. LOL
