Mundane News

[Andy in Germany]

We're back. It was a very interesting couple of days: northern Germany is very different from the south, not just in the landscapes but also the culture; after all it was a different country until not that long ago.

Middle Son seemed to like the possible job and they seemed to like him, so we'll see how things work out.

Middle Son took the job, so he'll be going there in September.

Frosty Start to the day outside
Clear blue skies and sunshine
Pushing well

Not so mundane news really, an update in the interview situation.

It's looking very hopeful, and I think I may have landed on my feet if this works out...

There are a number of options now, where I'd be working in one or two departments. I'll be working at least two days a week at a big second hand shop about seven minutes from my apartment, but the question is if I then work three days a week at a programme to help immigrants to integrate in Germany, which is about 40 minutes away by bike.

The shop has a bike recycling section, which I would be partly working in; and after they discovered I'd fixed and refurbished bikes in the past this became a suggestion I may be responsible for it in the long term...

And there I was thinking that you were going to become an escapologist ! Being able to fit into small space and being able to land on your feet !

Morning .
It's bright and sunny here .
Poor little one doesn't understand why he hasn't been fed this morning . He is going to the vet's this morning to have some bits removed.
I feel sorry for him ! . He'll probably end up forgetful like me .

Morning all. I feel far more rested than usual this morning. I think that counts as a good night's sleep.

Spring is definitely in the air.. Mr Blackbird is chasing Mrs Blackbird around the garden with a glint in his eye!!

Ooh! They have found a large dinosaur footprint up in Yorkshire .
I think they said that it was from a carnivore, the first to be found in this country .

Not recent, hopefully.

Just emptied the dishwasher. Over the previous 24 hours, we'd used 14 forks, 11 knives and 17 spoons (not including teaspoons).

Might work out an average for the week, reckon the fork count has to be an anomaly 🤔

Never can work out how we use so much cutlery.

I went out for a gentle pootle on my Dawes with a friend this morning . It was nice and sunny , we stopped off several times to chat as we weren't in any hurry .We did about 12 miles. No interesting finds to report . We saw a Red Kite flying low .
The dvd that I ordered has arrived .

Cool and breezy here chez Casa Reynard, with occasional sunny intervals. We have dodged the forecast showers - well, so far.

Did a load of laundry (cycling kit), hand washed my face masks and bras, and made a big pot of carrot, sweet potato and red lentil soup.

Almost lunchtime, and then afterwards, there is marmalade making on the agenda.

Pawsies crossed for the little 'un. They usually bounce back without any problems - it is quite literally a 5 minute thing.

Give him a gentle chin tickle from me when you pick him up later xxx

Good night, @Reynard .
And a pleasant tomorrow.

Thank you @Gravity Aided

Slept really well and doing things I (mostly) enjoy.
