You wonderful people, I'm once more one year older. It even is a intense number we're talking about, but the other big news is that I quit! And not smoking mind you. I'll have a lot of time on my hands from July 26th onwards.

Both are splendid reasons to celebrate and since I couldn't spent as much time with you all as I wanted these last few years, I want to spend some quality time with you all.

My wonderful planning team (my sister Mitsch), is currently organizing a lovely little house in the vastness of Brandenburg, so we'll have both time and space. It will be reachable via Train from Berlin and if we're lucky even be near a lake! We'll have this house at our disposel for a few days (and at least a weekend), so you can come and go as it pleases you and as it fits your life. If you want you can also spend the night there, either in the house or in a tent.

The dates aren't quite fixed yet, but it would be wonderful if you could save the 3rd/4th and/or 10th/11th of August for me. If you can, maybe even the time in between. It might still happen that the one or the other weekend won't quite make it, but we'll do our best to include both of them.

If this doesn't work at all for you, please tell me. If nobody can make it we might still be able to move to a later date, but our options are rather limited by now.

Since this is also about my birthday and this weird tradition with those presents exists: My only wish is that you swing by. And if you're super motivated I'd be delighted by some decoration or consumables. If you really can't make it I want to demand invite you to make a confessors tape.

In case you don't know what a confossors tape is supposed to be, I prepared a little example just for you. I'm sure you'll come up with something more beautiful.

Further details will be arriving via mail, after you've given me a quick shoutout at akkordglueck@poxar.net. Please mention your name in the mail, since I might not be able to guess your name from the adress. It would also be helpful to know if you want to bring some of your favorite humans (or other creatures) along.

If there's really no other way, I'll also accept confessors tapes under that same adress.
