HC-meeting in Stuttgart

What a lovely late summer this year! The days are bright and warm, the nights getting cold already. But still - I enjoy being outside in the garden with the cats jumping around (catching butterflies, sigh). Even when painting some more ;)
In the evening around 15 hc-members from Stuttgart or staying here now met in the SI-center. Ken aka uaflyer had arranged the get-together, and I was one of the official invitors in the forum.
Valentina from Russia came as well, she's not a member herself, but her boyfriend is. I had met him in chat on Wednesday, he had told me that she was working in Stuttgart now, and I had suggested to invite her to the meeting. He did, and she came! We had fun talking, though her german and my russian are almost non-existent. English helped. Pity we don't have much time to spend in Stuttgart. But she might come to Berlin next week, I will host her then, and she invited me to visit her and her boyfriend near Moscow.
I left the meeting around 9:30 pm, quite early, and in chat talked to her friend Vasily again. How he wished to have been there with us! That's what I like about internet: you can meet friends from all over the world!
