Fritz Posted November 22, 2018 Author Share Posted November 22, 2018 Several more Seventies hits and nostalgic pictures added further back between beginning and end of article. Alstervergnügen in Hamburg, annual event late August The Alstervergnügen was an annual event at the end of August, originally conceived and organised by Carlheinz Hollmann and his wife, Gerti Daub, who was Miss Germany in 1957. C.H. Hollmann died in early 2004. A couple of years ago, the event was called off, and has not restarted since. The Stuttgarter Weinfest in Hamburg, which had also been taking place in July and August for well over 30 years has also been abolished for similar reasons - security. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fritz Posted November 26, 2018 Author Share Posted November 26, 2018 This is the music group ElbRock (Hamburg). It started around 2002 when some colleagues and old friends got together and started this group. They travelled frequently but also appeared in various localities in Hamburg. Earnings were not great considering it was only a part time thing, but usually covered the expenses. Among the colleagues is Nicole as lead singer, the granddaughter of Walter Neusüß, she is second from the left. This photo was taken in the port some time ago. Nicole is no longer with the group and has taken on new challenges. https://www.popularmusik-nordkirche.de/musikgruppen/gruppen/elbrock/ Here a short article about the group. http://www.elbrock-hamburg.de/cms/wordpress/ This is the homepage of the group, which still plays, Nicole's picture is still on the page. and this is the present repertoire, this may have changed somewhat since Nicole left: Baby Please Don’t Go Big Joe Williams Bad Moon Rising Creedence Clearwater Revival Blink Paul Weller Blue Suede Shoes Elvis Blues Hand Me Down Vintage Trouble Bobby Brown Frank Zappa Cats in the Cradle Johnny Cash C’mon Everybody Eddy Cochran Cocaine J.J.

Fritz Posted January 16, 2020 Author Share Posted January 16, 2020 Warning to those skiers, who walk though the town in their ski-boots! Liable to a Fine on the spot of at least 25 Euros - and a possible fine up to a limit of 2.000 Euros - as this is regarded as an "Ordnungswidrigkeit", punishable by a fine on the spot! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fritz Posted April 3, 2020 Author Share Posted April 3, 2020 Chust a liddel Experiment Das Leben treibt seltsame Blüten... Something completely different. Well, not exactly, met twice, very reserved, very graceful, very dignified, not forgetting the enormous age gap, so no great expectations. And of course, last but not least, with some heartbreaking personal issues and a desperate need of cash. So, believing or not believing, and giving her the benefit of the doubt, made a small contribution and sent her on her way. Not heard from since. Thank you dear! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fritz Posted April 17, 2020 Author Share Posted April 17, 2020 Ich glaube, mein Schwein pfeift! Da hat nach 2 Wochen die Kleine wieder angerufen, diesmal braucht sie mindestens 5.000 Euro! Dahinter ist eine "traurige Geschichte", wie so oft im Leben - bei aller Freundschaft und Sympathie - konnte ich nicht Folge leisten, und nannte meine Gründe dafür - dann brach die Telefonleitung zusammen! Und Tschüss! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fritz Posted April 21, 2020 Author Share Posted April 21, 2020 Yes indeed. Once you get to a certain age, you get wise to these things. When you are younger, you suffer unnecessarily. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
