Contest

Cheese fondue

Today was day 2 of the outing for my “employees”.
We walked from Sils-Maria to St. Moritz. Some of my workers sank in the snow up to their chin. But the mood remained festive.
In St. Moritz we organized a civilized cheese fondue contest. (Who could eat the most cheese fondue?)
Sander, the designer of this site, won the contest.
And tonight we played foosball again till 2 in the morning.
Foosball is a dangerous sport.

Oh you lucky man. I'd happily sink into the snow up to my chin these days (do you go skiing from time to time?). Alas! As things are I'm on my last legs instead due to exam preparations.

Yeah, - when does one enrol(l) in your Royal Household - and how not to be fired? Is it by allowing you to win all sporty endeavours like breaststroke, fondue - eating? ( In which case I do pity your intern and myself wouldn't care to apply ).

I'm proud of you! (Did you put the pink boa on as a sign of victory?)

Melancholy. (It reminds me of all those nights a long time ago: my friend ‘Fat John’, and I eating 30 bags of paprika chips, drinking about 12 bottles of wine, playing foosball …)
The King Drinks!

I will easily drink you under the table again, Bernard. ( Just to make an investment regarding my future nostalgia ). But without any chips though, you Burgundian.

Asterix
a less civilized version of a cheese fondue contest is like the one in Asterix and Obelix (Astérix chez les Helvetes, 1970) or are there other (well-known) options?

@Hanny, Sasja
Hanny: Thanks, although I won the contest without much effort. It was simply a delicious cheese fondue.
Nice website BTW, if I had not been Arnon's slave I would offer you my services.

Sasja: You know I only wear pink for you, my dear.

@David
Alas, I do not consume alcoholic drinks any more (there is a time and place for everything).
To be drunk that was nice, the hangovers were terrible, but the recovery was remarkably pleasant again.

BERNARD,


What a confession. And a brave one too, but that's too bad. Don't you remember the gods gave us the wine as a gift for means of pleasure and education? Don't annoy them; you sound a bit like from some other planet to me. Good luck to you, any time, any place,
