This is the book I´m "reading" when our master document takes forever to do anything.
Short stories of really tragically dumb deaths in history.
"Tschö" means "Tschüss", bye-bye.
Or as my Brazilian to-be-teamleader says, "Tschüssi-Ciao-Tschüssi".
I love the added "i".
And as there is more or less a "face" I join Nicole´s FFO with it.
I think those watercolors with a brush are better for me.
Shoot. Ingo also presented me with a set of 72 watercolor-pencils.
Tips on how to work with or do I give them away? Which would mean recycle, with which I could join Bluebeard and Elizabeth.
Instead how about this:
All I can contribute with is re-using the cheap paper.
With which I at least "help" the trees, right?
And come better weather I might hop on my push-bike more often but I admit I feel unsafe on it and prefer to walk.
I would need to look up where BS Energy gets .. well, energy from (BS standing not for BullShit but BraunSchweig, the city we live in) - maybe also wind and sun.
It´s a task. I wanted them to inform me about "everything" please NOT via paper-, but e-mail.
They don´t get it done... I will re-try.
Smiles I had some - esp. my Russian colleague. A real nice guy. A (very) bit hectical, but friendly and talk-active. Or, say, chatty. I learned a lot about his life in Russia (he now lives in Hanover, Germany).
Other, I think this can make one smile to join Annie´s Smiles:
Haven´t you seen this way too often also?
And this, sounds familiar?
Henry 🦁
Or scary, I joined River with this today!

LOVED the seat backs. They are hilarious. And I was surprised by the Pacific Ocean, but it's really true. Great fun and great face, too.
I hope VGF in Frankfurt loves those seat backs also, LOL. Would be too funny!
The brain can get mean when you want to sleep, huh? TGIF!
Oh that brain! Mine does things like that too. I'm just about asleep and suddenly my brain wants to talk about something from when I was ten, or other random nonsense.
I like the seatbacks. I see far too many low pants people here still. They buy pants to fit their legs, forgetting they also need to cover the huge belly and bum.
River!!! Was the belly needed to be mentioned?! LOL.
I see butt-cracks mostly just from men bending over. Or being on a push-bike.
Yes, the brain. I dreamed the weirdest stuff the last two nights.
My brain worked on your post, I join you once I found some pics I took. The theme is also... Australia, big surprise (not).
That looks like an interesting book to read, never heard of it before. I do not understand why people wear trousers like that, they must be very uncomfortable and look awfull, I wonder if they think they look good in them!!!!!! Loving your art work and watercolour pencils are so useful. I use them with a paint brush straight to the lead and then apply it but I know some people use them differtently. Have a great weekend Hugs, Angela xXx
I'm doing a quick whizz round the blogs before we head off on an adventure [the first in our caravan this year].
I have watercolour pencils but much prefer my paint brushes.
Hugs,
Annie x
...let's care for the earth and cover cracks! Enjoy your spring, Iris.
Water colour pencils are lovely to use with a water pen. Have a good play with them and I think you will like them.
The colours on your painted flower are lovely.
The seat backs really made me smile. So true!
Kate x
Definitely play with the watercolor pencils and check youtube for tutorials on how to use them. (there are lots of ways.)
The seat backs made me laugh out loud. I'm glad I wasn't sipping tea as I would have spewed tea all over my computer screen. 🤣
Angela, I would not nuy the book again, a bit boring (only good for short breaks).
Those trusers are a pian! To see, I will never try that.
Thank you, I might give the pencils another go... xXx
____
Annie thank you, I´ll try the pencils (maybe) again.
____
Tom YES to both!
____
Kate, I have water pens. yet... wrong paper? Lacking taklent?
No to butt cracks ;-) x
____
Gene, I did - it was frustrating. Maybe I try again...
The seat backs made me laugh. I see Henry has a big smile on his face.
Love those seat backs.
Christine, thank you :-)
____
Bill, yes... to both!
Oh I love this book you are reading and especially the cover. The watercolor is beautiful. I am cracking up about the bus seat. No, I never want to see that again. LOL Thank you for joining FFO and have a lovely day, Iris. Oh, my German friend will be here in a few minutes. I will find out what town she is from. I'm going to have her teach me a few words in German. I love the sound of the language.
I like watercolor best and really like your imagery
thanks for the funnies...
LeeAnna
Oh Iris! Sometimes your posts really crack me up but this one .....well really does (ha ha!) Loving your art too, hugs, Chrisx
Both of your drawings are great today Iris. I do really love your Earth Day drawing showing the earth as a flower. It's a great idea to show the whole idea. Have a super start of your weekend. hugs-Erika
RedPat, I think I really should send this to ALSTOM!

Nicole, I bought the book due to it´s cover indeed!
You love the sound of the German language?! First time I hear this! Where is she from? We have so many accents.
I would love to speak Italian, it´s like music, but German?! Either way, have fun!
To a great weekend!
____
LeeAnna, thank you :-)
____
Chris, you´re very welcome x
____
Erika, thank you, I think watercolor is finally fun! No idea why I had such a limp start!
Hugs!
Everybody seems to be commenting on your book cover. I didn't see it. But your water color of the grim reaper is great.
Yes, you can use water color pencils with a brush. That is how I use them. You can either use the pencil on the paper and then use a brush on it. Or use a wet brush on the tip of the pencil uintil you have the right amount of color. Have a play!
I like your Earth Day contribution. Great!
Oh that brain that won't turn off! Yes, I have one too.
Love the tram seats.
Have a lovely weekend,
Hugs,
Lisca
Stupid Deaths from History ... what possessed you to read this, Iris, LOL. I would never have thought of it, but now you have peaked my interest. Where did you find it, in the Library? I love your Tschussi painting. What does the "Ciao" mean? And your recycled paper painting is a great Earth Day contribution:) I only wish we could do it ... so far, not so good. I know BS isn't supposed to mean BS in you post, but to me BS means BS unless you can show me that they don't burn coal for energy, right? And your Russian colleague, does he have any thoughts on the Ukraine? I would love to hear the opinion of the Russian people if they knew the truth. Your"No one likes to see this" did make me smile, so you are right, it works for Annie's Smiles. I rarely ride a buss anymore, so I am not sure it happens here. But, I have seen Butt, on some of the crazy kids who think it is cool to let your jeans slide down until they are exposed. Not from my generation :) And my brain must know your brain, because it talks to me when I am trying to sleep all of the time. If you ever find a solution to that, I will be all ears :) Henri and wife (or friend) show that smiling and laughing is contagious, right? All the more reason to do more of it ... Fun post, Iris ...
