T STands For TuTTI FruTTI!

 

 

This is for Elizabeth´s T... and for Ingo.

Ingo worked as a TV-technician. Can I say so?

And Tutti Frutti made many a people come to get color/new TVs!!! Because...

 

Wiki: "Tutti Frutti was the German version of the Italian game show Colpo Grosso ("Big Shot"). It was aired from 21 January 1990 through to 21 February 1993 on RTL plus for three series, totaling approximately 140 episodes. It was the first erotic TV show on German television..."

"Erotic", hihi... That´s why people bought new TVs! (Define "people").

Was a yummy drink, this - and a "sweet" memory.

 

The journal:

 

 

Monday: I failed. There is not really anything to report.

 

 

Tuesday: Hups, like Monday.

All I did was phoning with my friend fK - she´ll meet our boss fE tomorrow!

Other....tired.

 

Wednesday: fK reported mD1 and mD2 from Alstom Austria both spoke "highly" of me to fE.

Sadly the plant is down, but if they get back they want me and hence ESE wants me back!!!

fK also told fE I´d be OK to not be the April1st-joke - no stress! Yippeeeee.

 

You know. I am a loner. A seminar on trains at ESE and fK took the seat right.beside.me.

Just right next!!!!

And now we´re friends! She might be my boss some time, too. 

She calls it "colleague", though. 

 

Thursday:  Did some clean up. Oh, come on, I am old! Jet leg...

 

Friday: See Thursday...

 

Weekend: Saturday: Met neighbor fC and asked about neighbors fH/mM - we still do not have our keys back!

fC wrote down the phone number, we chatted and headed off. She did.

I met... neighbor W!!!

For 2 hours - he wanted to get in, me out - we stood outside in the cold, talking!

Went grocery shopping, called fH and BOOM! down she was with our keys, I gave her Onion Thyme Marmalade from Perth as a thank you and we chatted for over an hour.

 

And people ask if I am lonely... How.Can.I.Be.Lonely?!

Sunday: A bit of sleep in, Löwenzahn, Maus, fairy tale I didn´t like.

Munchy:

Yes. Back in Braunschweig so...

 Henry 🦁 

 Spring, jet lag? I have no idea.... wish Ingo´d cuddle up... Ingo, btw: Working! As if we were never in another time-zone. Chapeau!

 

 

Let Us Start?

 

Go for something better, huh?

My Brother is an Optometrist (and goldsmith) - I have glasses for any occasion - and want to GO! 

 I said, "better"!

 

 Now we´re talking!!!

 

 

(We saw the lounge but from the outside, of course).
 And... be prepared... in the most beautiful way!

 

 

 

Indeed I do feel pretty safe with this airline.

Sorry about the coughing woman. It could´ve been worse...

And sorry for me being in there, too. But this way you see it is real.

 

 

How to proceed:

Make it through airport routine. 

Go to Transperth. Tag on. - You have a "Smart Rider"-Card, right?

One train - fool-proofed!!!  

Take the train to Perth Underground and switch through to Warwick (the second "w" is not pronounced).

Go upstairs, #450 moved to the end on the right. 

Say, "hello!!!" to the driver and tag on.

When you see Kingsway Shopping Centre wait till the driver pulls over to the very right turny-lane, then click "stopping".

 

Tag off at the back and shout a loud "thank you!!" to the driver.

When out, proceed and look at the driver - he might smile and wave at you. 

 

Then proceed to cabin 101.

Home. 

Let the holiday begin!

 

When off to CBD: Here goes:

 

#450.

And yes. I am homesick. Very.

 

I do have family and friends from here and there and it is not too cold and!!! 

I have Ingo!

But those weeks sped by. Too fast.

In all honesty: The cabin would be enough for me.

We had all we needed. 

Well. Maybe if for life I´d need a proper place to cook. 

 

I am thankful and sad at the same time.

 

Henry´s alter ego, the Black Swan 

 

4C/39F...
 

 

 

 

FFO And Angels

 

 

As I´m, still jet-lagged I start Nicole´s FFO with these Angel-Faces...

Couldn´t remember Harold Gould, George Clooney, Burt Reynolds and even Leslie Nielsen had guest rolls, too.

 

 

Ho, boy, still on Aussie-time! 

For Gillena´s Lunch Break:

 

My stomach says it´s (Perth-) lunch-time.
 

And more to smile:

 

Miss our Moped-times (Harley-Davisdson from 1977/78)...

 

 

... and mM who had one, too, and helped me big at ESE. When he had to let me go, he hugged me - yah, these darn bikers, huh?!

 

Some funnies?

 

 

 

 

 

 

Now I feel like coughing, though...

 

 

#Supernatural

 

Wish me luck the hunger comes back!

  

Soon I´ll bomb you with holiday-pics, be sure!

For now....Henry 🦁 

Have a great Friday and wish us luck we´ll adapt to this time-zone soon!

 

Hi Henry, We´re Home...

 

All went extremely well.

Crazy was: Saw the move "What about Sal" on the plane - that took me straight back to 1995, when I visited Australia the very first time! It played in Kings Cross, Glebe (Sydney).

If weird with Deutsche Bahn, of course... Instead from Franfkurt Airport to Braunschweig Main Train Station we needed to go from Franfkurt Airport to Franfkurt Main Train Station.

Platform 9. Changed to 8. Changed to 7... And of course too late...

Yet, we were there at 2:20 p.m. and home via tram soon later.

 

And boy, I needed a while! Backpack nearly 5, suitcase nearly 18 kg. I sure was shaking. 

Temps Frankfurt 5C, Braunschweig then already 16, sunny.

 

Whilst I type Ingo went to REWE to get us something to eat - isn´t he the best?! 

 

 I need to start careful as my whole system is out of whack!

 

Henry 🦁 

 

 Thank you, dear...

 

 

 

T STands For Pizza

... which is my ticket to Elizabeth´s T. Wine with bread??? Just read on....

The journal:

 

Monday: Weee... "serenade" by Bro and Nieces via What´sApp, T via What´sApp and then teeth cleaning by hand. Doc came in. "My fav patient", she grinned and was done in: under one minute!!! All good! Under.one.minute! Birthday call from fK, What´sApp  and otherwise a quiet, sunny, cold day.

 

Ordered Truffle-Pizza!! Something went wrong, money came back - I had a "Birthday-bread" instead... see pic above.

 

 

Tuesday: Found all gear for Perth, suitcases smell like cellar but thanks to AI I will hopefully get rid of that.
Parcel for Ingo. I was to sign with my finger on a smartphone. Ummm.  But she was content with it - even if you can never track that back to me! 

Truffle-Pizza!!! Certainly I got an accident-one. But... YUMMY! "The code, please". "There was no code submitted..." - "last two numbers of your phone?".... thinking, thinking.... getting old! I had to get the whole number through my brain.

 

 

Wednesday: When the day starts with, "good morning, my love", then it must become a good day, right? My fav check-out woman. After I got rid of paper/cartons after preparing them, did laundry... Reckon I´m fully recovered. Did banking - additional tax payment that high I could not transfer in one piece! Did employment office stuff, more recycling paper, dishes, suitcase#1 is covered in baking soda - it funnily even has my surname:

 

 

Thursday: HELP!!! I am to give all documents for tax return (I give that away again) till March 02nd. I thought I have more time!!!! Asked back.. "Oh, sorry, I thought you wanted to have it done earlier... we need to have it ready March 2nd 2027"...  Do.Not.Think!

My bank has humor. When  you do nothing for a longer while you do something... "Logout. You have successfully logged out." 

 

 

Friday: Puzzling about. It is stupid but... I hate travel, so much can go wrong. Beaming???

But then... I´d have no job in railway... 

Railway... got my "certificate" for the training. I am "exemplary, constructive, collegial, recognized, competent, valued... active, successful." I Hope that means they take me back, I so hope!!!! Or is this too much sugar and means good-bye?

 

Weekend: Saturday: Bad news:

 

 

Reckon those strawberries are gone. Glad I have some more and hope they made it. First time I see this.

 

Other ... last stuff for holiday bought. I hate traveling. So much can go wrong. I hope when this publishes we have arrived.

 

Weekend: Sunday: Die Maus, the beginning is in German, followed with the same in another language, which is revealed when done. It was...: Austrian! See!!! I DID struggle with the Vienna-team! It counts as foreign language! I so had to laugh! Because by now I understand. ... more or less.

Ingo insisted on going to the Steak House. And there was the CUTEST waiter ever! He looked Italian/French and was in such a GREAT mood! 

Let my tenant know via What´s App I´ll be gone to Perth and if something´s on.... she called me on the dot and we had a nice, long chat. Nice as in.... her Hubby has passed. Oh. She is 77 and still so positive. I need to meet her some time (I inherited the apartment from my Mom).

Munchy: Better late than never and now the little wine Ingo got for Christmas 2024 (!) is finally empty -  I added truffle oil -  I will do this always maybe now?

 

The internet series - I spare you the boring ones...

"These mathematicians changed the world 

 

Isaac Newton (1643–1727)

 

Isaac Newton, one of history's most famous polymaths, discovered calculus. He also developed a method for approximating the roots of a function and classified most cubic curves of the plane."

 

As still written in Braunschweig... 

Henry 🦁

 

 Hope all went well. We´re on the way to Perth. I am offline...
