I’ve lived a minimalist life so I can move everything in one small car.
On the other hand, I’m not so sure there’s a great loss if a few boxes of shoes or clothes of Mrs Geek got burned down. 
“Sentimental value” is very back breaking, so the odd house fire may be long term healthy.

NEVER let Mrs. Geek know this! 
(We, the old friends here, will keep of course this secret.)
We have really many wardrobes here in our house.
But, I own only a small one!
The others are for the ladies!

I own my next home and am moving.
Lift…grunt… drop x1000 times and done. I’ve spent months to keep the limbs and back ready. Done two van / car loads so far and more to do.
Then have to get tenant in old house, then buying 2 more houses then I’m done.
I rented a van yesterday and the date of my driving license meant I could legitimately say “I’ve been driving since before you were born” to all the youngsters in the hire office.
I don’t usually drive, I bike / walk as much as possible, so I arrived on a bike and threw the bike in the van. I then spent the next hour saying loudly to myself all the other drivers should slow down and keep their distance. I then passed a road accident, where the children now driving didn’t keep their…

Tenants are not often easy to handle.
I always used to “visit” them in their homes to sign the contract.
This way there can be seen a lot and spying out.

After a catastrophic MOT failure, this morning I helped Dad buy his new car.
The last one he bought was from me 14 years ago, so he got his monies worth from that!
Almost clear sky’s and 24 degrees (which is OK for the U.K.) so what to do?
BEACH!

Charlie my friend!
Learning how to treat girls from his father! 
Great to see you’re having fun.
Went home from flea market very early about 9:00.
Was getting to hot.
Now we have ca 31C here in München
This temperature is normal for summer here in Germany.
But we all should think about our friends in Portugal, Spain, Italy and Greece
(up to 48C)
That’s really to much.
( Hiding in in the basement with some beer would be a solution 
)
My ladies told me I “have” to prepare some “Bratwurst”
OK I will do.
“Chefe de cuisine” today!
Result : Bratwurst : Burned outside, raw inside!
“Chefe de cuisine” will be fired!

I would love this temperature from July to September.
48 degrees is perhaps a little to hot for me
Well Chef Franz, I hope your cooking impresses the girls.

Never had Bratwurst Franz.
I’ve sent them in the supermarket (obviously not as good as yours) but haven’t been tempted to try.
Are the skins thick? I don’t like thick skins on sausage, not sure of that a me thing or an English thing

Oh Paul you poor man from the island!
There are different types.
The best are from Franconia region, (Nuremberg, Coburg)
Then other good ones are from Thuringia.
When our son (Now in Sweden) was studying there (Ilmenau) he had to bring home always huge packages to the old parents.
No thick skin.
But how can I describe those.
Of course these are totally different from those you will find in UK:
Best would be : Show up here!
There is Bratwurst, beer and fun for our friends from UK!
