an online writers' course and other things

The link is here.
I thought I'd give it a try.
More on that later on.

Right now I am polishing a 10+ page scientific paper I have translated to English. Some of the most frequent words reveal my state of mind these days: farm regulation, inheritance law, turnover, material resources, measures. Had enough I guess. I, too :) - please tell me it's not 'me, too' here, right?

About the photos:
They were made in Poland, where we had a nice performance with the choir.
(more photos may come on request)



Keep well,

National Holiday

At the first evening of the 1956 revolution, usual radio broadcasting was made impossible by street fights.
Before the national radio station was moved to the building of the Parliament, journalists grabbed a few vinyl records in a hurry and later on, played them during the days of the revolution.
This record, Beethoven's s Egmont overture got played so often that it is connected to the Revolution. For many magyars who think about 1956, this is the music that pops right to the mind.
This to remember the heroes of '56.
