The Dishwasher man has been (again) and has now been promoted to the position of Dishwasher Repairman. This visit only cost €57,60 (he is starting to feel sorry for me) a cost which I shall duly pass on to the owners.

This is a significant step forward as I no longer have to put the baking dish under the Dishwasher each time I turn it on. He has left me with another long strip of rubber which I shall fashion into Christmas ornaments.

These will be needed as they will not break or make a noise when Sissi drags them off the tree and batters them around the house.

It was a fabulous day in Vienna on Thursday and I was so excited I decided to write a short Blog to surprise Merisi.

I was pleased with myself for two reasons yesterday.

Firstly – I am not Tiger Woods. Any day now that I am not Tiger Woods is a good day as far as I am concerned.

‘Hi I’m Tiger Woods. I am the most successful golfer in history. I have won 14 major titles and I’m only 35 years old. I made $110 Million last year and I am the highest paid sportsman in the world – and the world’s first golfing Billionaire. I have a lovely wife and gorgeous children. My life is much too perfect and I think I will flush it down the toilet – let me see – how can I do this? Yes – I know!

Secondly – I have finally started my website

After our last horrendous experience at our very favourite restaurant I decided that it simply is not good enough that we have to continue to share our meals with smokers - so I decided to do something about it.

I am sure that there must be many visitors to Vienna who are seeking a smoke free experience. The intention of this site is to help the smoke free restaurants thrive and to put pressure on the nincompoops who run this country to do something constructive about the horrendous health problem they are perpetuating.

The sad part about this of course is that restaurants such as Ein Wiener Salon will not be on the site.

I have been planning this for a while and of course it will take some time to put together – but I have made a start. What you see (if you look) is the work I did on Thursday – starting at about 3:00 PM so it won’t take too long to make progress.

Any suggestions about the site, how it should be put together and function - or names of venues you may have would be greatly appreciated.

Oh - and by the way - The Rapture is due on Monday. But this guy has been wrong so many times already that I no longer have any faith in him at all. I think he should stop being a false prophet and take some lessons in web design.
