No communication from Tbilisi Court to the verdict the deported Marcel Maria Brandsma


This is - picture down - how the Iveria Hotel opposite Rustaveli metro looked like when I saw it first time, in january 1998.

But also when I came to Tbilisi in january 2004, Iveria Hotel was still full with refugees from Abchazia...


But renovations started when Michael Saakasvili became President and in september 2009 Michael Saakasvili reopened the newly renovated hotel. I was there also, on the official opening day, to see a beautiful fireworks during the opening night.

I had a tour at the Hotel and the view from the top floor, where there is a bar called Oxygen bar, and a swimming pool, is fabulous.

My first drink in the Surface bar was off course a Saperavi Wine and a Borjomi Mineral Water and I will give Zviad Cruise, the food and beverage manager only a tip if I can drink also an Amstel beer in his Oxygen bar.

If the First Lady from Georgia is Dutch, Amstel Beer from Amsterdam, the capital of the Netherlands, should be in the bar with the most beautiful view in Tbilisi, the capital of Georgia.

From the moment the hotel is open I have been visiting the Oxygen Bar frequently to enjoy the views of the city. You feel like being the captain of Tbilisi in the captains hut... my nautical brains whisper me.

When the hotel was opened in september, some expat whispered somewhere on Rustaveli in my ears... Again an empty hotel, that will be the fourth five star hotel that is going to be empty in Tbilisi. He mentioned the Metechi Palace, the Old Mariotti and Mariotti Courtyard, all most of the time empty hotels after Georgia had a war with Russia.

From the Oxygen bar of the Radisson you can see down the Kempinsky Hotel, that needed an investment of 150 million dollars. This decission was made in january 2008, I met the English adviser of the decission makers in the Courtyard Mariotti.

The renovation of Kempinsky has stopped in 2009 because of the financial crisis worldwide and due of the war between Georgia and Russia with a big decline in investors, coming to Tbilisi...

Dear Sandra,

Georgian Law does not allow me to travel to Tbilisi to do my own defense in the Tbilisi Court. This was said by Embassador Shota Gvineria, who I met last week in the Embassy of the Hague. I hope I get a positive answer on the letter that I wrote to your husband in which I asked to do my own defense in Tbilisi during my appeal ?

It has been postponed again and now it is on your birthday, Sandra, the 23th of December, and how nice it would be that I can come again normal to your second country, the country of your husband Misha, from the day that you turn 42 ?

You will have a bussy birthday week that week. First it is your second son Nikoesja, who celebrates his 5th birthday on the 19th of december. I got from you a birthday card when he was born in december 2005. Then on the 21th december it is Mishas birthday. And on the 23th december it is your birthday !

And the day of my appeal in Tbilisi court..

From my Dutch embassy in Tbilisi I was previously informed that on thursday 9 december my appeal against my deportation will be discussed, starting 4 pm.

I have not been informed by the Georgian Government about this, nor my representative Zaza Maisuradze, so I have written the following email to z.bokhua at court.ge and I hope this person understands english and answers my mail asap.

The mail has the same content like all the other mails I have sent. The fact that there is no communication at all from the Tbilisi Court or the Legal Aid Service to me or my representative Zaza Maisuradze. To be continued ...

Dear Batono Bokhua,

Do you speak English ?

I am the person from Holland who was deported from your country on the 26th of oCtober. I think I am the first Dutch Person in Georgian history who was deported from Sakartvelo ?

I have not received any information about my appeal after my court case on 26 of October until tuesday 30 november at 6 pm.

It was my friend Zaza Maisuradze, who I have authorised to deal with all my affairs through an official notar document, who informed me about my court case, that should take place at 2 december at 2 pm.

But this session was cancelled because I was not officially informed, confirmed by my Holland Embassy behind Metechi Palace. The Dutch Embassy sent me a document much too late !

Now I hear that the session is taking place on the 9th of december at 4 pm.

Well, this information has not reached me or my representative Zaza Maisuradze officially through a mail of your Tbilisi Court.

How can I prepare myself for this case if I do not know when it is ?

I want to ask you to again cancel the court case from 9 december, because the advocat that I was given from the Legal Aid Service, Mamuka Basilashvili, has not made any contact with me or with my friend Zaza Maisuradze since I was deported.

All he has done was write a letter to your court that I want go against the decission of the 26th of october.

Well, this was something, Zaza Maisuradze could also have done. From the Legal Aid Service advocat the aid was minimum. And I expect maximum.

So my questions to you are the following:

1) Can you cancel again the court case of 9 december ? Because officially I or my representative Zaza Maisuradze are not informed until now !

2) Can you tell me how much time the court of Tbilisi gives for persons to prepare themselves for the court case, when the announcement for the court case is made ?

3) When the court case is cancelled again, can you inform me as soon as possible when will be the next date ? And not like now and last week, that we have to find out ourselves ?
My contact details are in Holland toidverdroif@quicknet.nl for email and my phone is + 31 6 19 78 69 97

My contactperson in Tbilisi is Zaza Maisuradze, tel 8 99 270 870.

Looking forward to hear from you soon,

Well, Sandra, the result is now, because of my letters, that the appeal is postponed until the day of your birthday, the 23d of december, at 2 pm. At the time that you are serving maybe zelfgemaakte lekkere Hollandse appeltaart - homemade tasty Dutch apple pie - to your guests on the menu of the Tbilisi Court is my appeal.

I hope I have enough time to organise all the necessary documents. This is very difficult because of the language barriers, the 5000 km distance, the cultural differences and my minimum financial situation.

letter to the Judge about my deportation decision


Marcel Brandsma in Moscow, in december 2002, visiting the Georgian consulate to get a visa to travel to Georgia. Mr Brandsma also went to the Georgian Embassy in Moscow to meet up with Teimuraz Gamtsemlidze, second man of Georgia in Moscow during Shevardnadze time.

Mr Brandsma met mr Gamtsemlidze before in Brussels and Alkmaar, but also already in 1999 in Airport Wassenaar near The Hague, when President Shevardnadze landed there for an official meeting with Queen Beatrix. Mr Brandsma put the model of the Solar Village of Aspindza back under the presidential plane...when it was exposed in Sustain 1999, worlds biggest renewable energy conference in RAI Amsterdam.

This photo is a historical picture, because nowadays you can travel to Georgia without visa, so no more visits to consulates anymore. Marcel Brandsma paid in spring 2004 in Brussels more than 200 euros for a multivisa for Georgia for one year. A few months later Misha decided that all EU-visitors could enter Georgia without applying for visa anymore...


Thursday 2 december 2010, 13.13 hours Holland Time

Dear Sandra,

In Tbilisi there is plenty of nice weather, but Holland is covered under a white blanket of snow and winter is everywhere with temperatures much below zero Celsius. It is cold in my caravan, but I survive.

Maybe you fly this weekend to Holland, because of Sinterklaas ? I can imagine you want be with your parents in Zeeland with your youngest son Nikoesja, who will be turning five soon and who still believes that Sinterklaas is a reality ? He is named after Nicholoz, it sounds almost the same like Nikolaas.

I also can imagine you want show your children as much as possible our beautifull cultural things in Holland, far away from the daily troubles in Sakartvelo.

Definitely, Sinterklaas is one of the most important cultural features of the Netherlands that brings us in the art of poetry and creating surprises !!!

In Sakartvelo you are Pirveli Kali all the time, but I can imagine in Holland and Zeeland you still have the opportunity to be a simple mother of two lovely children and whose husband is much abroad for business ?

Or are you also recognised everywhere, nowadays in Zeeland ?

Have you already received my letter that I sent to your parents about cooperation for Asatiani ?

When you see Misha, can you tell Misha about what has happened to me this week ?

All details you find in my letter that I have send to my tardjimani Zaza Maisuradze by email. And that I have put below here also.

I wanted Zaza to read this letter in court today, but just before the court started the court case was cancelled until next week.

To the Judge of Tbilisi Court
that decides today about my appeal
against the decission of the Court about my deportation from Sakartvelo on 26th of October 2010

Langedijk, kapusta ostrov, 2 december 2010

Dear Judge,

First I want to say that I was only informed about this court case on 2 december at 14.00 hours on tuesdaynight 30 november at 19.30 hours.

Zaza Maisuradze gave me the information by telefone. Zaza Maisuradze is my contactperson that I have authorised to deal with my legal affairs through a notarial contract.

I was given an advocat from the Legal Aid Service from the Ministry of Corrections and Legal Assistance of Georgia, Mamuka Basilashvili on 26 th of October 2010.

I have asked Mamuka Basilashvili to keep in contact with me and my authorised person Zaza Maisuradze when I was deported.

But until now, there was never any contact between this advocate and me or Zaza Maisuradze.

It was the initiative of Zaza Maisuradze to hear about this court case.

Since what day my advocat Mamuka Basilashvili knows I have this court case and why he has not contacted me or Zaza Maisuradze immediately ?

If Zaza Maisuradze had no contact with him by telefone on 30 november, we dont even know this important court meeting was going to take place on 2 december at 14.00 hours.

Only today, wednesday 1 december, my contactperson Zaza Maisuradze got all the documents from Mamuka Basilashvili so Zaza Maisuradze started to translate the nine pages.

The translation is not ready and I have seen nothing of it when I started to make this document.

But it is the procedure I like to question, judge.

How can we seriously defend my case if we dont get the announcement and all documents on time ?

One day is not enough to prepare myself together with my advocat and together with my contactperson Zaza Maisuradze.

So I would like to ask you judge, to cancel the court meeting and postpone it until we have found time enough to prepare ourselves and discuss our strategy. Your country must have time limits for this also.

This is normal in my country.

How can my advocat Mamuka Basilashvili defend my rights if I do not know there is a court case and if there has been no contact between my advocat and me since my deportation night at 26 october ?

So please give us the normal opportunity to prepare ourselves for this important appeal.

Please judge, can you postpone the court case ?

This is my question to you.

If Sakartvelo wants to be part of the EU and work according to EU rules my court case has to be postponed. I hope the court of Tbilsi agrees with this and my court case will be cancelled and postponed.

I am looking forward to hear from Tbilisi soon.

With kind regards,
from the Netherlands below sealevel, with a lot of snow and ice, it is winter here,

Marcel Maria Brandsma

Post Script

I sent this letter at aboout 10 O clock Holland time or 12 O clock Georgian time to Zaza Maisuradze in Tbilisi.

I called at 10 minutes to two O clock Georgian Time, just before the process was about to start and then Zaza gave me the message that the court case was cancelled until next week, the 9th of december.

I think I should be in this court case personally, so tomorrow, when I am in a meeting with the ambassador of Georgia in the Netherlands I will ask him to organise this for me.

I dont think that Airzena planes are full every day so I could leave on wednesday 8 december and be back on saturday 10 december. So I also have a chance to pick up my personal belongings when I was deported without previous notice, a robbery, we call this in Holland !!!!

Sail Amsterdam en Marine


Marcel met Giorgi Isakadze, vice president of www.bag.ge the Business Association of Georgia. In january 1998 Marcel met Isakadze during a conference about renewable energy. Isakadze was at that time part of the staff of President Shevardnadze

Dear Sandra,

I am back in Langedijk now, getting ready for Sail Amsterdam. I left Tbilisi with my Volkswagen Golf on the day it was two years ago Stan Storimans got killed in Gori.

In the morning I drove to the Edelweiss Flowershop from David and Marieke, that I knew from Vaxi flowershop in Nikoladze in Perovskaya.

In Vaxi shop I have brought cut flowers and pot flowers in the beginning of 2008, in january. The first order of flowers that I tried to export to Tbilisi stayed in Holland. Agreements that were made about the shipping to Tbilisi were two times denied by Airzena, so my first export that cost me a few thousand euros, stayed in Holland.

On X-mas eve, the 24th of december, I drove with these flowers to Amsterdam. And I put the flowers at the Anne Frank Monument, next to the Westerkerk on the Prinsengracht and the Rozengracht. Other flowers I putat the Monument of Multatuli, on the Singel and on the Gay Monument in the Keizersgracht. In front of the house of the Mayor of Amsterdam is a monument that reminds us of the slave exports to the USA. Do you know that the house of the mayor was built from the profits of the slave export ? There I also put my first export flowers to georgia.

Marike and David from Edelweiss shop made for us a nice bouquet with white roses and gladioles. I added a small Holland flag from the football times together with a letter in Georgian and English. We drove with the flowers to the square where the Russian bomb exploded two years ago and made many victims.

The letter remembered the victims of the Russian bomb in Gori, especially our RTL cameraman Stan Storimans. And all journalists who are working around the world, informing us what is happening everywhere, to tell the importance of journalism.

Pirveli TV was there and also Imedi, so later I heared compliments of what I did there when I came back to Tbilisi.

Unfortunately my tardjimani translator Zaza Maisuraze was not there with me, like last year. He had to go to our Dutch embassy, to bring extra documents for his visa application. He brought his diplom of the Suchumi University and a reference letter from a German Human Rights Organisation. And also some money transfers.

visum geweigerd !
Zaza was unfortunately again refused a visa. For the second time already ! Oh my god, how angry I was ! The man that is very honest and reliable person and that helped me with many things, got NO VISA !

I wanted to speak with Patrica La Cognata, but she refused to communicate with me. I called to the emergency telefon line of the embassy and spoke with Heino van Houwelingen. He explained me why Zaza did not get a visa. He needed proof of paid work with bank statements, but Zaza did not have this. I found a very helpful man, refugee from Abchasia and unemployed and gave him work and dignity.

But this was not enough. I tried to work in Tbilisi and restart my activities and for this I wanted to show Zaza Hollands way of working, but my country did not want this ! Horrible !

dont sit on the grass

It was all day very hot, about 38 celsius, so I decided to sit on the grass in front of my embassy to let my emotions go and speak with our representative. But there was a sign in Georgian that I was not allowed to sit on the grass. But I felt overwhelmed by the heat and emotions. The security Guram, working for our embassy, called the police, same like last time, and they wanted to take me away from the grass. I said, I am not going, you can lift me up, I want stay on this ground !

Well, very disappointed I left the embassy territory and we drove back to III Massiv.
There I packed my things and we left at 7 o clock for the direction of Holland. With on board Vano and Dato, the sons of Marine Todua. They got a visa very quickly.

Sail and georgian flag on toidverdroif cabbage boat

The drive back to Holland was a long way, but we made it. We arrived on monday at 5 pm. I mmediately I went to my neighbour Pieter de Wit from the shipyard Houdt Moed. I called him one time from Tbilisi to ask him to prepare the Toidverdroif, that had not run for two years already, for Sail Amsterdam. When I came to his house, his answer was: "Marcel, the Toidverdroif is running OK and ready to go to Amsterdam !"
Good service, Pieter, who still works daily with his father, another Piet, who is already 85 years old, to maintain our traditional agriculture ships from the country of the 1000 Islands.

We had a test trip on tuesday afternoon with the Toidverdroif and loaded the boat at night with famous Langedijk cabbage and my Georgian matros Vano and Dato were of great help. And also my friend Jan Sterringa, who organised for us a trailer.

So Sail Amsterdam was going to have one participant carrying the Sakartvelo flag.

Unfortunately, pirveli matros Marine Todua came not with us, same for Nidas, pirveli stuurman from Toidverdroif. His mother Aida said Nidas had to prepare for his new school in Delft, but I think the best preparation for his new schoolyear is participating in Sail Amsterdam with the famous Toidverdroif boat from your father ?

But we will do our best to have the Georgian flag be shown to the nautical world during Sail Amsterdam.

Sandra, I hope one day also Georgia officially participates in Sail Amsterdam. I brought the Sud 1 from Lithuania in 20005 to Amsterdam Sail and this was the first time Lithuania participated in Sail Amsterdam. Now it is Georgias turn ...

You have Zeeland blood and Zeeland has a lot of water and sailing activities so I hope one day Georgia is also part of the international Sail world, because Georgia has harbours along the Black Sea.

The Toidverdroif went with Georgian flag and two Georgian matros, Vano and Dato Eloshvili, and with 800 kg cabbage from Langedijk to IJmuiden on wednesday 18 august. On thursday 19 august we gained a lot of attention and applaus from all the spectators and boats on the great Noordzeekanaal.

Vano and Dato enjoyed this attention very much and were proud matros, representing Georgia in the Sail In to Amsterdam.

Cabbage for Queen Beatrix presented by Vano Eloshvili from Tbilisi

Highlight of the visit was the presentation of a cabbage to our Queen Beatrix on board of the Groene Draeck, the Green Dragon, on sunday 22 august. Already in the morning when we passed the Groene Draeck, the boat of the Queen, the Prince of Orange Willem Alexander asked me if the flag that was on our boat was the Georgian flag. So he recognised the Georgian flag!

Vano later threw the cabbage in the Y harbour, where all the tallships were, to one of the crew of Beatrix and he gave the cabbage to our Queen and she was very happy with it.

In the Telegraaf, Hollands biggest newspaper, was a photo on the front page showing the happy Queen Beatrix with her cabbage. Also SBS 6 Shownews interviewed Vano and me and in evening of 23 august this was on SBS 6 TV with nice video from Vano who threw the cabbage. On youtube you can see a video that was made by a friend of my neighbour Pieter de Wit, the nineth generation of shipbuilders and maintainers from the family De Wit, from the shipyard "Houdt Moed !". See http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OMchDgPoAy8 or put in the two words koningin (queen) and kool (cabbage) when you are on the youtube site.

sauer feeling from dutch embassy in Tbilisi

How sauer it feels at the same time that tardjimani translator Zaza Maisuradze was refused a visa to travel to the Netherlands and could not be with us and how terrible it feels that my embassy in Tbilisi did not allow me to visit the reception of the Queens Birthday in Radison Hotel on 30 april 2010 this year in Tbilisi.

We all wondered what the Queen will do with our cabbage but it is the second time she got a cabbage during Sail Amsterdam !

Greetings, Marcel Maria Brandsma, still waiting for many answers from Tbilisi

zondag 11 juli 2010

Holland wins final today but who wins in Georgia ? Marcel seems to loose many things but .... luctor et emergo !

Sunday 11 july 2010, Tbilisi Airport, 5 pm

Dear Sandra, Kalbato Saakasvili-Roelofsi,

How are y ? Y was on Imedi TV yesterday, organising a supra in Holland somewhere. Great ! I organised this many times with Marine Todua in Langedijk and Amsterdam.

Sandra, this year we saw each other already three times. I mean, I saw you, but you missed me. It is OK, you are very bussy woman now. First I saw you at Radisson Hotel, when y came to visit the reception of Queen Beatrix. When y came the security from my Holland embassy was coming to me with security from Radisson to make sure I did not come close to you. I saw too late that you was there entering the RADISSON. So I could not even say hello to you.

Metechi Palace 10 june elections night toilet stop

The second time it was at night, you came to Metechi Palace on the 10 th of june to have a toilet break. I was watching Holland news about the elections till 5 am Georgian Time in the morning on my own small Samsung computer and was surprised to see you there.

Also the moment was special, the day the Dutch 2010 parlement election results were presented on Holland NOS TV. I was thinking of the morning of 5 january 2004, the morning you became First Lady and we met shortly also in the same hotel. I am still curious what happened to the Prins Claus Tulip Bulbs from Sint-Pancras, my village, that I brought to your mother in law, the mother of Misha, on Gamsakurdia 33.

These symbolic bulbs must be somewhere in Tbilisi now, and if they have disappeared I bring to you new ones in autumn. But where I can deliver them ?
When I bring something to our Queen Beatrix, it is easy. I take the present and my passport to one of her Palaces and the security takes it after writing down my passport details. I have done this many times.

But when I come to your White House or old house behind parliament, there is always security who speaks not English and they always say "Tsadi !" - go ! - Please tell Misha that at least security from his enormous White House and his Parlement learn English !!!!!!!! To communicate with interested visitors like me. And let them tell visitors "mobsandit", welcome, and never "tsadi" anymore ! So unpolite, in a country where guests are seeing as presents from God.

I am not a terrorist, I am megobari of Sakartvelo, but your Mishas security think not like this.

WK 2006 Roelofs 1 shirt from Hink Megasport Alkmaar

The third time I saw y was in Philharmonia after the game Holland-Paraguay. I was happy to see you still have the shirt with Roelofs 1 on the backside that I brought to you via embassador Elderenbosch in 2006, when we were playing in the World Championsship Soccer in Germany. I had it made in Alkmaar, in the Megastore, from the Langedijk family Hink.

You was close to this shop, because it is opposite the Beatles Museum, that you visited with Eduard two years ago.
I was disappointed that you did not tell me you was in Alkmaar, because Langedijk where I live is only 8 km from Beatles Museum !

But I saw you in Roelofs 1 maika. I thought when you moved to your new Tetri Sachli you probably had so many clothes that you was not able to find it anymore.... But you was on Pirveli TV with it, showing that you also have Holland feelings, great.

Vano Eloshvili, the son of my friend Marine Todua, saw you on Imedi, and I was also there with my own imported Heineken Beer helmet. Sandra, why you dont bring many staphilosperi things to Georgia from Holland ? You have the contacts. And the money...

Our embassy is also doing nothing special about the soccer. I was in Goethe Institute and saw the new German embassador there, a very kind man. I met him in Radisson, on 28 th of april, with his wife. He was just a few days in Tbilisi. He is more friendly than our embassador mr. Langenberg, who refused to meet me and refused me to visit the Queens Birthday 30 april reception, while I send to him photos of the Queen taking from me a Bejo cabbage during Sail Amsterdam 2005 on the Groene Draeck, the Green Dragon, her beautiful Lemster Aak ship.

Prince Willem Alexander was stearing the ship in the waves of the Y.
I did my best to bring many orange things, but they also got stolen from me here in Tbilisi. Your Georgian people think I am Sinterklaas and they can take everything they see from me but this is not what I like.

I already miss one vuzuvuela, one Holland flag and also one orange water gieter, to give plants water, it was stolen from my cafe Toidverdroif in Shuamta, III Massiv.
I tried to shout to you in Philharmonia, but again you did not hear me. It is OK, I know one moment I will meet you and I feel now how you felt when the Dutch Embassy opened here in Tbilisi and they did not give you a job in the economic department. You wrote about it in your book.

I am waiting now for my court case with Baindurashvili from Saburtalo. And I hope they give some result before 12 august, the day I drive to Gori and than on to Langedijk, to be on time for Sail Amsterdam.

I asked your parents last year for help but they did not want to do anything for me. It is OK. But I organised for you nice meeting in Amsterdam in 2005 and you sold 170 books but later your father told me you was not happy with the organisation there.

Why you didnot tell me this ? As a President of the Holland-Georgia Foundation I was first responsible for evereything at that time.
At that time I was working together with Marechi Togonidze, who had all the contacts with the Georgian Embassy in Brussels and I found out in may 2005 that she is not a reliable person at all to work with.

I knew this already in december 2004, my friend Marine Todua warned me for her but I was so stupid not to listen to her. I trusted Marechi because her father has restaurant Aragvi in Mscheta and she was working for Rabobank in Utrecht. But I made big mistake, trusting her.

She took out the website from Holland-Georgia foundation and until today she has not returned some administrative documents.

Marine Todua sees who are liers in Georgia very well but I did not listen to her.

I also not listened to Marine Todua when she warned me for Giorgi Baindurashvili and I was stupid because this man lied to me so many times and he was never home when I came to his house in Saburtalo last years. He used my contacts at VWS Flowerbulbs in Langedijk for organising priglashenia and even gave me a bad name at the embassy.

He must pay me back already since 2006 more than 8000 euros. About this I have contract with Notar and my friend Zaza Maisuradze is now organising all court documents.

Last year I again tried to get my money from Baindurashvili but no result. I had to go home in september and found out that I was in financial problems. My Rabobank did not want to give me mortgage anymore. So I had to sell my house where my son Nidas was born and I also lost the very good friendship with Marine Todua.

This last I really feel horrible about because she showed me around Tbilisi and she brought me in contact with many people, one of them is Rezo Amashukeli, minister of culture in the Shevardnadze time, who wrote the poem Dolorosa. It is the bible story - the road Jezus took when he was sentenced to death in Israel.

Well, my life is here in Georgia also one big dolorosa, so I am a real looser here, I lost many things but as we say also in Zeeland.

Luctor et emergo. I struggle and get up again...

And this is what I am doing now. I fight with the people who lied to me before. Also with Ketevan Tsereteli, she worked with me in Au Pair business since july last year. But she decided to keep all my things and decided to make contracts with Au Pair organisations behind my back. We call this stealing in Holland, but Ketevan goes to church every week and has no regret so far what she has been doing with my contacts and things.

She does not understand that to be succesfull in Au Pair business, you must be honest, trustwothy and reliable to succeed in the long term.

I hear a lot about you, Sandra, I read a lot, but I think you are still an honest and hardworking woman whose fate it was to become husband from Michael Saakasvili.
I admire you but also feel sorry for you because Misha has big ambitions, but he also makes many mistakes and does not say sorry for it. Making mistakes is OK, if you are young, but not be able to say sorry, is a talent Misha should get out of his system as soon as possible.

Enough now, let us hope Holland wins tonight for the first time in History the final and let us hope for Georgia that the same amount of Dutch people who visited Spain for holiday will come to Georgia in the nearest future !

Until we meet in reality I shall keep on writing you letters via this blog, knowing that one day you call me and we meet and talk about why it happened like it happened. It is Gods will and I exept it.

Greetings from the quiet Tbilisi Airport, I drive now back in my 27 year old Golf to have douche in Shuamta and then get to Philharmonia to be with all the guests from Tegeta Motors and with Aliko from Zaandam.
