Bye bye, I'm walking again

Friday August 31, 2007 at 07:42PM

Last year I had quite a success as a photographer.

I won a photo contest for pictures of the soccer world championship in Germany.

Here's the proof ;):

Here's the picture:

 

Here's the prize:

To be precise: The prize was a free, one year leasing contract for this BMW.

Today I had to return the car. Now I have to walk again.

Sad enough.

1 day after:

How unfair: a free parking lot in front of my house (this is quite a rarity in the part of Frankfurt where I live).

So kann man es natürlich auch sehen. Zum Glück bin ich nur ein bisschen angefixt.

@Janpro replies:
Danke! Ich bin auch zufrieden mit dem Bild und halte es von denjenigen, die für das Internet-Voting zur Auswahl standen, tatsächlich auch am besten (ganz subjektiv natürlich ;-)).
Ob ich bei einer anderen Vorauswahl durch die FAZ-Redaktion eine Chance gehabt hätte, glaube ich aber ehrlich gesagt nicht.

wow! :D:D:D congratssssssss!!! and you know? walking is much healthier ;))
pic is great!!!

@Janpro replies:
Yeah, walking is healthier.
But a car which you only drive when you want and which you don't have to pay for is a luxury I definitely could get used to ;)
BTW I should get my bike fixed ...

mad.melon replies:
bikes are cool ;)) i should have my left leg fixed :/ but pfffffffff :/
well... a for cars, i'm a great passenger but driver, pffffff ;)) nope, don't have driving license even ;)) so cars are cool, but with driver only :D

@Janpro replies:
That's the next level of luxury: A car with a driver.
But I'm afraid I won't reach that level.

Ja, bin ich :-)

Und das "gemein" bezog sich darauf, dass du den nur ein Jahr lang nutzen durftest ;-)))

Ha I would have tried to renegotiated another deal with BMW tell them you will do some new marketing for them in exchange for a loaner vehicle. Do an assortment of pictures of some of their cars with some cute girls or family waving inside and have them blown up to life size cutouts. Then place the cutouts in parking places around town or even on a complete block. Probably get some great attention. Wonder what the parking fine is for a cutout?
