I'm not bothered at potentially waking the neighbours up, but mopping a floor before I've had either a coffee or my morning cigar really isn't on! | | | | | Robot vacuum not working?

Nothing, nobody till eight. Eventually, I had a group of 4 kids....and they got a bowl full of sweets, you should have seen their faces! I can bet it was the best catch during their evening.

Ups, now they seem to have a first world problem.

I was at the doctor's office for some routine but extensive/lengthy tests, and was bored out of my mind. I didn't think to check EF until after 2 hours at least had passed, in case there was some juicy, early "Friday thread" that could keep me entertained.
Then I found this gem. I wish I had found it earlier.

Today i saw Chewbacca walking around Paradeplatz, taking pictures with the other tourists.
My iphone broke on the weekend, so I couldn't take pictures & post on Facebook.
As this event is now not on Facebook, I am not even sure that it happened.
