It's Wednesday, which means I'm finally back in the bike workshop.

Only a few more weeks and I'll be here full time...

Still not going too great for my son - abandoned again yesterday, no taxi sent so he had a long walk to another village to eventually find a hotel around 1am. Rural Belgium - literally in the middle of no-where about 40 minutes drive south of Liege

I'm currently on hold to AA Lyon to see what's going on, then I'll be on to the official complaints line. 33 year Membership will be cancelled on his return.

Another damp drizzly day but less wind than yesterday so far.
The problem with my grass is that not only is it very green it also is growing far too fast and needs cut far too often. I do not do it myself and would not cut it as often as my neighbour does. He cuts mine as well as his own and the grass/weeds on the strip on the other side of the street in return for cans of petrol. Cheaper than getting one of the grass butchers to do it and since he started work when he left school on the graveyard squad he was taught how to do it properly.
We had a brief spell of sunshine yesterday but rained most of the day and I suspect today will be the same.
I correspond with my late wife's sister in Denmark and they seem to be having the same kind of weather pattern as here.

Normal service has been resumed..

It's Black Bin day today

 

[pawl]

No it’s not, it’s green bin day Wonder why they can’t just make it the same all over the country and save confusion. Presume your black is general waste? We have green for general, blue for recyclable and brown for garden/food.

No it’s not It’s brown and blue bin today.I don’t have a green bin The other bin is black d the brown bin is for green waste Just a correction the blue bin is black with a blue lid.
There coming to take me away ha ha

Have a good day

And for those watching in black and white, the green bin is behind the black.

Son is currently at the nearest hotel to the garage, 10 minutes in a car but a 3 hour walk !! He's in Marche-en-Fammenne, and the car somewhere near Hotton. I've told him to get the hotel to phone the AA to get another night rather than be worried about where he is going to stay again tonight. The garage only speak French, so he needs to be there and use google translate to understand what's going on.

I see my neighbour carrying an exercise bike and a few other bits of keep fit equipment into her flat.

That will give her things to hang clothes on but surely a clothes horse would have been cheaper
