@Eco It's good to have you back, if you did return, id est. Hope your family and you are well off?

Ah, cheers. 

Yeah, I'm not sure if I'll ever be back as much as I was, but I figured I'd drop in and see how everyone was doing. Family is doing well! 

I hope the same for you, and that you and your family have been doing well.

Happy belated birthday @Eco! welcome back again too!

Thank you sir! Again, not sure I'll ever be 'back', but it's nice to pop in from time to time. 

Hope you've been doing well!

On another note, this forum seems to have fallen off even more in the past 12 months. 

Is there some truth in that or am I just mistaken?

Sorry to have brought up painful truths. 

The key people are still here, and that's what matters.

Germany is in decline ever since beating hosts Brazil 7-1 in 2014. Brazil is a sacrament of football and it was sacrilegious to beat them like this, angering the football gods to put this curse.

In 2024 as hosts they will have to lose in semis in a similar way to England and bear all that It's Coming Home as an act of penance.

@Tommy Something that's almost certainly never going to happen in football occured in another sport: FCS won the Table Tennis CL  in a final versus Düsseldorf. :coffee:

I saw the highlights of that earlier. Looked like a very close encounter that initially made it look like it's smooth sailing for Borussia Düsseldorf until Saarbrücken miraculously came back. 

 

What a shame that Timo Boll was injured. :(

"A polar Fox escaped from a small zoo in Germany but got tired along the way." Whos a good boy/girl. I saw it on reddit so it has to be true... either way its adorable.

r/aww - A Polar Fox escaped from a small Zoo in Germany but got tired on the way. A zookeeper took him back. I hope that didn’t disturb his slumber.

Paris has the Eiffel Tower, London has Big Ben, New York has the Statue of Libery, so the small German state of Saarland thought: Well, we need something like that too! 

Here's the result.

Apparently the "artist" got close to 250k Euros for that. :|

Doesn't surprise me, this piece of art is apparently worth 120k $:

And a hungry Korean student apparently ate it at the Museum of Art in Seoul a few days ago 😂

 

But anyway, back to the Saarland masterpiece. That sausage in the top left corner is killing me xD

Shows you know nothing about Saarland. Lyonerring (that's what the sausage  is called) is an essential part of Saarish culture. So much indeed that a street in Saarbrücken is named after it.

Naming a street after a sausage, that's a completely new level for me xD

Well the street had a name that was deemed inappropriate in today's world and since three big meat factories are situated in it it was renamed Lyonnerring like the sausage. No joke.xD
