331: Merry Christmas From Graz, Austria

~Apologies~

I know !  I KNOW !  Slap my wrist !  It’s been weeks since my last post and you must be wondering what’s going on.  Well, everything really.  My move from Spain has totally screwed up my hands and balance.  I couldn’t get my head around blogging, answering comments and doing the simplest things are almost impossible.  So I am sorry that many of your comments in previous posts lay unanswered. I have read them and love you all for putting yourselves out to write.

Life so far has been revolving around government paperwork,  some easy,  some brain frying.  Still,  almost finished.  My UK pensions are coming to Austria, but Brexit has been ruining the exchange rate.  I am now officially a permanent resident in Austria and not classed as a “gay pride 40 year old bearded child migrant with no paperwork” who is given everything.  Yes,  craziness is a norm in Europe.

Paperwork is delaying Natascha and I getting married,  but we are almost there !  It will need a full future post  to tell you what “fun” we had.  The following 3 photos were taken in Vienna,  part of the game governments play when we had to visit the British Embassy for a bit of paper needed for us to get married.

~Natascha Is Awesome~

Yes she is !  I love her to bits.  Never having done any DIY she is willing to have a go at anything with my guidance and does it well.

“Will I die ?” she asked before climbing the ladder to hang curtains 12ft high.  

She does everything for me and the cats and loves doing it.  She is awesome and I am so lucky to be with her. 

~Sonic & Murli, Our Christmas Lights~

It cost me a fortune to move from Spain to where I am now,  so as part of my cut-backs the cats now have to chip in and work for their living.  They are now Trainee Christmas Lights Cats (TCLC) unpaid ! 

Sonic on the bed

Murli flashing at the birds in the back garden

Samantha blew a fuse !

~Christmassy Evening In Graz~

A cold evening.  My feet felt like penguin’s feet,  but worth the tram ride into the centre of Graz to see the lights.

~Happy Cats~

“Merry Christmas everyone !” 

Love Murli,  Sonic and Samantha ❤ ❤ ❤

Samantha surrounded by stuffed friends

Natascha playing ball with Sonic

~Flying Truck?~

Bouncy truck ?  I had some fun with my photo editor.  Click on the photo to see the stabilisers, needed as there were men high up on a cherry-picker installing the city Christmas lights.  

What does Christmas mean to you ?

Wherever you are in the world, whatever your faith or belief, have a lovely Christmas. Be kind to each other and that includes you crazy politicians !

Love, from our home in Austria

Ralph xox ❤

  5. Ralph, lovely to hear from you. Grrr…sorry to hear about your hands and balance…I really hope that improves for you soon. The wheels of bureaucracy grind slowly but seems you’re getting there. Wishing you and Natasha a very special first Christmas together in the magical wintry Austrian landscape. Wrap up warm! Merry Christmas and warmest wishes for an amazing new year!

    • Greetings dear Annika,
      Grrr indeed ! I have been doing a bit of research lately and have stumbled across the exact name for my problem. It is called Essential Tremor and it is as common as muck. My Spanish Neurologist did not even mention it, kept going on with fancy names such as Lewis Sumner and all her treatments came to nothing. There is no cure for ET except for zapping a minute spot in my brain with ultrasound and it has to be exact or I would be turned into ET phone home.
      Yes, the paperwork is almost finished and once married we will have to start all over again by changing my status from single to married and Natascha has many name changes to do as well, as she is taking my surname. Oh boy, it may stop one day !
      Thank you so much and do have a lovely Christmas yourself my friend.
      Love Ralph xox ❤

  11. Ralph, I am so glad to hear from you as I so often wondered how you and Natasha were doing. Not good about you hands and balance. Hope it settles down as stress and bureaucracy ebbs away. You have had a major upheaval in your lives and I am not surprised if it affects you.

    It all looks wonderful and all the sweet cats are settling in. Paperwork will sort bit by bit and it won’t be too far off before the bells are ringing for you and Natasha.
    First, you have Christmas to celebrate and presents to wrap……and lazy mornings with even lazier breakfasts.
    Sleigh ride would be wonderful but I couldn’t see any snow.
    Hugs to you both

      • Hi Ralph! 🙂
        You are welcome. I can imagine this big move has been somewhat stressful for you (Is a combination of pleasure and pain a more accurate way to describe it?), and dealing with government bureaucracy and related paperwork can be frustrating.
        I think things are getting better, but I am not sure if I will ever be able to relax again. Life keeps surprising me in unexpected ways.
        I hope you and Natascha are having a wonderful Christmas too. Hopefully both of you will be able to relax too once you finish with all the work you have to do. 🙂

Wrapping up warm is on the top of my agenda as we have planned to go to C&A next week to get me upgraded from my Spanish wardrobe of short sleeve shirts to something more suitable to wear in this Austrian winter. The only paperwork left to do concerns us getting married, everything else is done including my residency and changing my health card from Spain to an Austrian one. Got it in the post yesterday.
      I do hope that your operation will be soon and successful my friend. I wish you well and do have a much better 2018. Hugs Ralph xox ❤

I am currently finishing off my quirkybooks.net ebook store site – finally! So people can buy my books directly from my site. I am using a third part to actually host and process my book payments, but it seems like a good system and the theme I bought originally I had problems with and the developer was not going to solve it – so I thought this was a great option.

    • Thank you Kate. Graz Is a lovely city. It’s a shame that these young men that came from Africa and the Middle East are ruining it. Natascha was rudely abused the other day while going to the pharmacy, which she has to twice a day for medication for migraine relief. She is going on a self defence course in a few weeks to defend herself from any more abuse or attack. Otherwise, the city and general population are lovely. Take care my friend. Ralph xox ❤
