A small victory

I haven`t gotten around to this one, because there is just too little time for writing. I can barely manage to keep up with one post a day. The first day of my friend Damjan`s visit (you can read it in Vino – a family visit) we went to a pub I have been meaning […]

A Story / Zgodba

Lately I have been noticing that the kids like and understand stories more than they used to. As I am a big fan of stories myself I told them a story about a hobbit (yeah, ok I stole the story, but they do not know that). But this was not just an ordinary telling, we […]

Milan Stibilj (1929–2014)

Ne gre za osmrtnico ali turobno pisanje, le spomin na dolgoletnega soseda in družinskega prijatelja, ki mi je kot otroku kupil kolo, ker si ga nismo mogli privoščiti. Ker je bil dober človek in očitno tudi velik umetnik. Slednje je zelo dobro skrival. Milan Stibilj… was our long-time (twenty years) neighbour in Vodmat. He lived across […]
