@Canarybird:

I am far away from being worried... ;-)

I can stand a good portion of humor, specifically if it comes to my person... otherwise I could not live with me for so many years...

@Adorman:

Well I just saw on the page that there is some games of Doha Handball league in 8 days, I will try to go there for seeing something of it, at least to see some Handball again... No clue yet how the level here is in the clubs...

Well maybe some people can be found to arrange some kind of fun Handball every now and then...

hmmmmmmm.... always mentioning old men in every post is not supposed to amuse me, is it? ;-)

Well let's see if anyone picks this up for the meaning of handball... lol

LOL

No it is not in mind only, my bones are "crushing" every minute... ;-)

However, handball or any other sports is just a fun factor and a good help for making friends...

Starting a team on my own is a hard thing not knowing any other handball players around the place... specifically when it comes to other teams to play against... ;-)

OMG I hope I did not make the impression I am professional... I am far not... I was as well looking for a fun thing... In Germany their is clubs of all levels, I am more looking for a lower level myself... ;-)

The fun factor is basically the only thing that counts...

If there is any chance for senior Handball there I am, but I have the bad feeling there is no such thing existing... ;-)

Be sure, I know my boy days are over... not only since you told me... :-(

Just had the idea to come into some kind of social life here after being here for one year without any such...

To be honest when I lived in Berlin I wanted to join the ladies hockey team and they told me I could only play as a senior and that at mid 30's it was just they way they said blunt and to the point. Just go for the senior dear your boy days are finally over lol.

Well, that's true in a way, but in Germany was still playing with teammates that were 18-23, so I stayed young in a way... ;-)

But you think I am in the age for changing to Golf? ;-)))
