comment : My grandfather drove before he got married at the beginning of the last century, several years as a sailor at sea. He always had some pirates and pirate stories in stock, which ended with each repetition differently. There was the story of railroads in Brazil with nocturnal fall of so-called savages (between 2 jobs on a ship) and also by itself out of the nest picked later bärndeutsch cursing and tame parrot on the ship, unfortunately, between landed on the hot plate and the tail feathers burned. As far as my memories of his stories in my early youth.
My grandfather actually smoked more. Either a stump or a Brissago a Rössli Rio6 - but I think he like the U.S. Ex-President Clinton "not inhaling". My first football game of the Young Boys but also have third and fourth games of the league as a student I visited with him. How and where I could catch Eidechsli for your own garden, he also showed me.
But the origin of my ashtray. All of the past were called BernMobil something like "Bernese Tramway Society & Cie." And in Breitenrain where grandfather lived for many decades there was also called pickling Tramway. Apparently a change of hosts, he has received in the then usual stains (now cool and rare) Stammtisch ashtray by the outgoing landlord as a gift and a reminder. Around the mid-60s, at least before the unspeakable forged Stammtisch Ash . Arose The Ash is the only memento from my grandfather, I've regularly in use, the rest are documents and photographs. And of course the great memories in my head. My Site / Blog : I run neither a website nor a blog.
