Erika reminded me of the map we had back in the day with this.
We started in Sydney - not the most clever idea, but, well, we were young.
We bought a car on day two and took off!
The red lines mark our route.
I was wondering why Dad let me take off with a much older man I hardly knew... just to find out "recently" Dad knew him for years!!! LOL.
They have been watching the stars together, Ingo wandered through my parent´s house whilst I was about or in my "kid´s room".
I am beyond thankful we were allowed to do this.
I brought back so much money we went a second time (we slept in the car in side streets, on rest areas.... cold, free showers etc, etc).
1999, after I´d graduated, we went again and boy, we had ALL the time on our hands but... internet??? Not available! We missed so much!
We landed in Perth and stayed in WA (Western Australia), NT (Northern Territory) and the Outback of both.
Can you believe how long ago that was?
I´d SO love to do it again! Live in "the dirt", be humble, sit and enjoy the light-clear skies.... The Southern Cross, all that.
Tom, hope this counts as "Sign of happiness" for your meme Tom´s Signs2.
Today I have another sign - I´d been warned.
People expect me to describe electrical stuff for maintenance-workers I never had in my hands (the electrical parts!!! Hmm, who knows about the workers?) - huhhh. The guys are from Czech Republic and don´t know the words in German. Hm. Neither do I... Fun times ahead (these men are super-nice!) - we do not have the words in English, either...
Think twice hopping on a tram in Graz... (it´s but the electrical heating in a window).
I´ll study the technical drawings and hope for the best, wish me luck...
If ka-BOOM, my bad (kidding!)...
I´m a "trainee", remember... hilarious where life throws me at.
The Headless Ghost of the Spanish Governor Part II
When the governor, Juan Treviño, returned to his lover, she had already married another man and the love potion was ineffective. Treviño marched back to the witches and demanded a refund. When they refused, Treviño attacked them, whereupon they confiscated his sword and beheaded him. Since that day, his headless spirit has wandered the deserts of New Mexico, searching for his skull and the witches who kidnapped him."
The train gang/countdown to creep:
Henry 🦁 - "I skip for freedom-seekers!":
A sign of help. Of fun in dark times.
What do you think of Zelensky´s suit? I´d really like to see your opinion.
To Marmite, haha...
To be honest... I have two MORE glasses of Vegemite as my friend´s wife thought I am starving and ordered more.
THIN. You spread it super-thin on your toast. Thinking of bringing them back to Perth!
Ingo hates Vegemite. It´s but me...
Can you imagine wearing such a "hat" all working day? I´d laugh myself silly!
Let us hope.... 💙💛
Oh, nearly forgot! The Padre made me remember this sign:
Sweet memories of mS, a nice colleague back in the day. I always got his car when he was not well or on holidays (a huge Volvo 70 with leather seats and all). We went to the Rocky Horror Show together, it was fun. I sadly lost contact.
He was my so-called "work-husband". We stuck together 9+ hours every working day - and he was sexy, too!
He always invited Ingo and once even "kissed his feet".
See, men and women can be but friends, if it´s a bit tough, LOL.
