SwanR Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 It's great to be another year on and still see the forum as alive as ever, full of interesting debate and good friendship. Three sleeps to go so have a lovely Christmas everyone, safe travels to anyone yet to journey to their Christmas destination and happy cruising to those folk lucky enough to be afloat. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HEM Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 I should add that I'm not a chemist - my father was a crystalographer (Reader in Chemistry @ Manchester University) & my daughter works in the toxialogical lab of the forensic department of UKE (Hamburg University Hospital) so there is some family trait there. On the other hand myself, my (German) wife & son are computer scientists... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maxwellian Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 Wishing you all a very happy Christmas and looking forward to a new year. I love this Poem - Guess who wrote it? :) It has been a difficult year for some, thoughts and prayers go out to you. Ring out, wild bells, to the wild sky, The flying cloud, the frosty light: The year is dying in the night; Ring out, wild bells, and let him die. Ring out the old, ring in the new, Ring, happy bells, across the snow: The year is going, let him go; Ring out the false, ring in the true. Ring out the grief that saps the mind For those that here we see no more; Ring out the feud of rich and poor, Ring in redress to all mankind. Ring out a slowly dying cause, And ancient forms of party strife; Ring in the nobler modes of life, With sweeter manners, purer laws. Ring out the want, the care, the sin, The faithless coldness of the times; Ring out, ring out my mournful rhymes But ring the fuller minstrel in. Ring out false pride in place and blood, The civic slander and the spite; Ring in the love of truth and right, Ring in the common love of good. Ring out old shapes of foul disease; Ring out the narrowing lust of gold; Ring out the thousand wars of old, Ring in the thousand years of peace. Ring in the valiant man and free, The larger heart, the kindlier hand; Ring out the darkness of the land, Ring in the Christ that is to be. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HEM Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 Every Christmas this one gets trotted out here - those who did "O"-Level German at school should manage: Quote Denglish Christmas Poem When the snow falls wunderbar And the children happy are, When the Glatteis on the street, And we all a Glühwein need, Then you know, es ist soweit: She is here, the Weihnachtszeit Every Parkhaus ist besetzt, Weil die people fahren jetzt, All to Kaufhof, Mediamarkt, Kriegen nearly Herzinfarkt. Shopping hirnverbrannte things And the Christmasglocke rings. Merry Christmas, merry Christmas, Hear the music, see the lights, Frohe Weihnacht, Frohe Weihnacht, Merry Christmas allerseits... Mother in the kitchen bakes Schoko-, Nuss- and Mandelkeks Daddy in the Nebenraum Schmücks a Riesen-Weihnachtsbaum He is hanging auf the balls, Then he from the Leiter falls... Finally the Kinderlein To the Zimmer kommen rein, And es sings the family Schauerlich: "Oh, Chistmastree!" And the jeder in the house Is packing die Geschenke aus. Merry Christmas, merry Christmas, Hear the music, see the lights, Frohe Weihnacht, Frohe Weihnacht, Merry Christmas allerseits... Mama finds unter the Tanne Eine brandnew Teflon-Pfanne, Papa gets a Schlips and Socken, Everybody does frohlocken. President speaks in TV, All around is Harmonie. Bis mother in the kitchen runs: Im Ofen burns the Weihnachtsgans. And so comes die Feuerwehr, With Tatü, tata daher... And they bring a long, long Schlauch An a long, long Leiter auch. And they schrei loud - "Wasser marsch!", Christmas is now - voll im Arsch... Merry Christmas, merry Christmas, Hear the music, see the lights, Frohe Weihnacht, Frohe Weihnacht, Merry Christmas allerseits... 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
