Meet Pluk!

At 7:45 they removed a car that had parked in a spot that was marked for being kept clear. I was awake already so the noise didn't bother me.

Also the noise of a jackhammer on the other side of the wall next to me at 7 o'clock didn't really wake me up.

This woke me up:

At 6:15 this crane rolled in to my street. Of course they never turn off the engine, why would you bother?

It was used to hoist materials up for the building around the corner.

My colleague Dustin brought a little doggy with him today! Meet Pluk! Pluk is very cute and VERY well behaved :-)

On the way home the sunset was beautiful.

A liiiiittle bit closer :-)

Kraanspoor building.

Pottering around

I put my stack of VIC 20 game cartridges on an auction website. First bid of 25 euro was in within the hour, then... nothing.

I washed my windows. I actually liked doing it coz the effect was unreal. Well, they were... very, very dirty.

I also re-potted some of my plants

I hope they like their new pots. I like them a lot :-)

So all-in-all I had a lovely quiet day just pottering around!

My new table.

Luuuuuuuuns.

My new dining table and chairs. I am very happy with the whole set. The TV will eventually be wall mounted.

In the evening I went to the session in Mulligans (HQ). There were THREE!!! harps.

The magic mushrooms

Sunday is garden action day! Nicole mowed the back and I did the front. It's quite nice with our little hand mower.

I found 2 little mushrooms in the front garden, hiding in the grass. This one is tiny but for some reason it makes me think it's poisonous. The photo doesn't show well but it was bright yellow and shiny. That's begging to be licked.

And there was also this mushroom that I unfortunately drove over before I saw it (yeah, I felt it bump up the mower ;-P ). It looks more eatable than the other one.

In the afternoon Stephen and I crossed our tennis rackets again. Contrary to last Sunday, today victory was mine! We left it at 2 sets in my favor: 7-5 (come back from 0-3) and 6-2. It was THE best match I have ever played. Steve, it's OK if you want to blame it on the mandarin ;-P Thanks for a great match, it was most enjoyable!

In the evening we drove to Henley and Vili's. That way I got in some good night-driving time. If any of you readers ever come to visit us, we'll definitely take you to this magical place of food stuffs :-)

When we came home I Skyped with my mom.

I bought her flowers which my dad got for me, thanks dad :-)
