Cute children’s pictures, a happy return of dogs and an escalating passion for collecting: The good news 2020.
Saxony-Anhalt l We admit that we had to take a closer look. But 2020 wasn’t all bad news. We found some reports that might have made our readers a little happier or at least brightened the mood for a few moments. In 2020, for example, pictures of children via WhatsApp or the healthy return of a bitch contributed to this. That was the most read good news on volksstimme.de this year:
Children’s pictures
A kind of chain letter made many people smile when they looked at the WhatsApp status of many Saxony-Anhalters in the spring. The digital challenge – otherwise better known from Facebook, Twitter and Instagram – called under the heading “Challenge accepted” to share a child’s picture in its status. Millions of people in Germany took part, WhatsApp flooded a flood of cute pictures of children.
Happy return
A small message was clicked particularly often in June: In Haldensleben a dog lady had gone on an excursion again. But the Terrier-Mix bitch allowed the police to take her away with some resistance. So the animal could be brought back to its owner after a short stay in the animal shelter. All’s well that ends well.
Feldpostbrief returns home
The miraculous return of a 77-year-old letter from the field post also met with great interest from our readers in June. When Karin Keller from Groß Rosenburg bought the field post letter in the Netherlands, she had no idea of its special secret, which leads back to Saxony-Anhalt. Here you can read more about it.
View in Wernigerode
A piece of normality paired with a great view. In summer, a Ferris wheel enriches the backdrop of Wernigerode. In times of the Corona, creativity is required, and the operator and the city administration quickly agree.
Ostalgie
We keep reporting about collectors on volksstimme.de. At the end of November, a report from Tangermünde deals with Ostalgie. Torsten Ladwig from Tangermünde, better known as “Lotte Püttelkow”, has been collecting everything that has to do with the GDR for decades. A lot comes together.
