Had planned longer bike ride to SW of Munich around the '5 Lakes' to include Andechs Monastery & cooling 'Russ' - 50/50 Wheatbeer Lemonade for I am Germany.
However left mobile phone at home & thus route planner etc. Digital watch also went dead at ½way. Did have a Russ at Stegen

Just listening to my first cuckoo of 2024. Spring has sprung.

I do find UK & German drink pricing interesting.
Supermarket own brand 70cl gin
🇩🇪 €5.55 = £4.75
🇬🇧 €14.00 = £11.99
Tonic: equiv 1 litre
🇩🇪 €0.44 = £0.38
🇬🇧 €0.76 = £0.65
And let's not even look at beer pricing😱
At least we can cheaply douse our sorrows about our government

Morning Tweeps. Have a good one.

Nutkin wants to know when we're going to clear out the dandelion pollen & get pool in order.
And yes, still have my The Tale of Squirrel Nutkin 45rpm record from late 1950s.
Now exploring portable PV experiment. About 1kWh today for lying down pair, despite appalling weather.

🎶Oh Tannenbaum🎶
Car tyre change on Friday to the summer slicks🏎

⚠️ Warning🚨
On Friday 19th, German and seemingly European police will be doing 24-hour speed camera marathon.
Yet another Brexit benefit for UK.
Think German fines comparatively humane. 70km/h in standard urban 50km/h limit only €70, no points or idiot tests.

Of late, been posting pics & videos of wonderful yellow coloured Allgäu countryside.
Now we're getting the downside .... pollen, everywhere. Suspect even our PV will suffer. Need rain!
PS also heat our 300 liter hot water tank with PV & use it to steam heat horse hay (allergy)

😳😳🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
