I went to my new garage this morning and guess what? The new electricity meter was already put in. Cool! Now I can get hooked up to the power grid :-)

My first job in my garage was sweeping the floor. I think it will take some more sweeps before it's all out though.

The new garage

I had an appointment with the seller to get the keys of my new garage. I was welcomed by a mother duck with a whole binch of little ducklings, nice :-)

Voila, this shows the size a bit better. I had to drive there with my loan car...

More diet food in the evening. Weight is dropping into the 96's now.

Nothing going on

Thursday today, not much going on. Not enough to make pictures of anyway...

The new hole

YAY! Had to make a new hole in my belt. I'm getting thinner! :-)

On my way to work I dropped off my car to have the mirror fixed. Hopefully I'll have it back before the weekend...

Getting fuel.

I came across this photo of a fox recently and saved it. I just love foxes. Such beautiful creatures!

I went for a drive in the evening, needed to get fuel. The least fun part of this hobby ;-)

The drive went very well along beautiful countryside.

Every single time I drive this way the beams close on me at least once... Always!

The growing flowers

Tanja's flowers are steadily growing :-)

Today Raymond and I drove down to one of our former royal palace's called "'t Loo". The annual concours d'elegance was this weekend again and last year proved to be pretty cool so we both wanted to go again.
