The dinner

I took Simone out for dinner tonight. We went to 't Fornuis, a place we've been to a few times before and we like it there. Staff is fun and the food is good. I tried something new tonight. This is a moroccan dish called B'stilla and basically it's a pie, originally prepared with pigeon but mine was with chicken and I reckon you can make it a cracking vegetarian dish as well. It tasted delicious. I was very happy to have tried out something new again.

During dinner this rumbling sound came down the street and when we looked out we saw this bright yellow Ferrari driving past.

When we walked to the car park Simone spotted it and I had to look, of course ;-)
Gorgeous car.

The gaskets

My carburetor gaskets arrived. I ordered them on eBay from the USA. Got here in good time.

The proof

I made another curry. It was very, very nice and very, very easy to make. I reckon I should eat curries the rest of my life maybe ;-)

Oh, and I got my first speeding ticket with my COrsa the other day. I found out you can download the photo-proof very easily!

More leaves

My little oak tree is making new leaves again. Cool!

A big crane has been at the neighbour's the last couple of days.

The Dutch movie

Some days I walk the stair to my office. It's just 17 floors, no biggie ;-)

I start to breathe heavier after the 7th floor. By the time I reach the 17th floor I'm just about fed up with the exercise so that's good.

In the evening I met Gerrit to go see a movie. It was a very nice movie. Not a big international blockbuster but one made in Holland, with Dutch actors doing a Dutch story. The crowd was small and civilised. Nice.

It was at the Tuschinski cinema which is known for it's stunning architecture.

The street where the cinema is, has changed a fair bit over the last couple of years but not to its advantage unfortunately. Normal shops are replaced with more tourist traps. Souvenirs and nutella everywhere. It's bad.

Afterwards we had a lovely pint of the black stuff.

The cakes

Because our company signed a contract with an amazing client we all got cake today. Very nice cake but really it's a start of a period with a LOT of work ahead.

More cake.

And even more! :-)

It was incredibly windy today. Big overcast as well. On the positive side; it's daylight longer now! Spring will be here soon!

The game

We had a very lazy Sunday at home. I had a little testdrive in the morning to see if the new plugs and cables made a difference. The car started and ran better than I expected. No misfires.

In the afternoon we played a game and I sucked at it. I managed to get my car on both red spaces and lost nearly all my income. The joy... Simone won, like, always...

In the evening Ilse and Cassie came over for dinner which was fun :-)
