Food time. Tomato & chilli soup first.

Here for rides.
Oh yes. And festooned with fairy lights (and people).

Sounds like you have been there. I was there one very quiet day in March. I managed to cross the bridge on my own.

I would love to see that, but Mrs. GA will have none of that. Acrophobia.

I have a new toy to play with, a bluetooth speaker, its currently on the shelf behind me belting out Network Gold. It paired with my tablet instantly, 
but would it pair with my main lubuntu box? Would it b******s . 
It looks like I'm going to have to get technical with it.

Hope that doesn't mean wanging it out of the window in a hissy fit?

No, it just means lots of time on the internet and lots of playing with settings, its too expensive to wang out of the window, though I might be tempted if I cant figure it out.

The surrounding scenery is mountainous particularly the route to Andermat and on towards um... Chur. It is my favourite, not because of the guage or the design of the station, but because of the possibilities of journeys that I could (and hopefully will do again one day) enjoy from that station.
Belllinzona is excellently located to get to Locarno (and the Centovalli Line) or down into Italy (via the Monte Rosa (?) or up to Interlaken. Bellinzona is in Switzerland but has a climate similar to Italy, and the cuisine is a mixture of Swiss and Italian.
We are returned from seeing The Blue Man Group. It was a good 50 minute show, unfortunately they padded it out to an hour and a half. They appear to have a group of fans who lapped up every minute - including the huge soggy lump of a man behind us who used his whiney Brum accent to read out loud EVERY word that appeared on the screens whilst also giving a running commentry to his family.
There is no way the show they are doing now could reflect what they must have been doing in the beginning because they simply wouldn't have lasted.
On the upside, we haven't been to that part of Birmingham for at least 15 years and we are really impressed with the redevelopment. I'm looking forward to the warmer weather when we will go back just for a mooch around the place. Also the Green Papaya salad at the Thai restaurant was devine.
