I know this is late but if anybody still wants to have a look...
The journal clip on the "front" reads: I’m glad this topic came up because it reminded me of one of the great excitements of my childhood that are not represented anywhere else… I loved going to the circus! Two of the big circuses, Zirkus Krone and Zirkus Sarasani, visited Worms on their annual tours, so at least once a year my father would take me. Mum hated the circus – she considered it profane entertainment and hated the animal smells, which for me were part of the attraction! That’s why there isn’t a single photo – my father never bothered to invest in a camera!"

Petra, I added you to the list of players under general rules....that way, you will get an opportunity to name a suit and theme as well. If you are ever looking for the rules or weekly themes...I always post these things under "general chat"..."altered arts"....So glad you joined us.
