Eight months after I started digging the pond in my back yard is finally finished! I promised to post a picture when I was done so here it is.

It was a bit dark when I took this photo, but you can get a pretty good idea of what it's like. It's 4 by 2 meters and 90 cemtimetres deep. There went 3000 litres of water in. I ran the tap for two hours!

Yesterday I got tagged by two people. First by Ramon and later that day by Raimond. If you don't know what this tagging is all about: When you get tagged you must write 5 different thing about yourself that you would normally not blog about. Then you must Tag five other people who must do the same. This should be a simple task. So here we go...

1. As a student I earned some extra money working at the Netherlands biggest amusement park "De Efteling". I had a great time there for 5 years. I've met my girl friend Carine there and we still see many colleagues from back then on a regular basis.
2. My favourite ice cream flavour is lemon. Don't ask me why, I just like it better than all the other flavours.
3. Past summer I started to build a pond in the back yard of my home. It turned out to be a lot of hard work and many Saturday's went into this project. The pond is near completion now but still not finished after six months. My colleagues at work mock me about this but I don't care. I'm sure it will be beautiful once finished. I promise to post a picture when I'm ready.
4. I like to play video games. Without choosing sides I've bought a Play Station 2 about four years ago to play Grand Theft Auto Vice City, which was exclusive for the PS2 at first. Many games have followed since then. Last year I bought a Play Station Portable to entertain myself when commuting to and from work by train.
5. According to my friends my favourite colour is Yellow. This started when I was visiting London with some of my friends and we went to Canary Wharf. They made a picture of me under a sign saying "Canary Wharf" while I was wearing a Yellow T-shirt. Ever since they like to think yellow is my favourite colour. Yellow is not bad but I like Blue as well. So guys, if you're ever reading this, Blue is also a favourite.

All the people I could Tag already have been tagged by others... I know of one other person though. Twan, you are now tagged!
