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.

He was so authentic, except his granny's black purse, that was a bit inauthentic.
Some people did not realize it was Halloween - they were really wigged out, staring at him. I was just waiting for him to start to give them blessings.
My cell was out of battery, unfortunately. FWP - not being able to take a photo of a fake cardinal.

My baby, oh so terribly young, just-out-of-nappies teenage son has asked me if he could meet his girlfriend down town on Saturday afternoon for an hour or so.
My problem is that I have already thrown out last weekend's large broadsheet newspaper which I need to have on Saturday to go with my long trench coat & spy hat.

Just spent 2 hours walking round the huge Tesco Extra store in my home town lost, and wishing I was in Migros with a fraction of the choice.

Now, go get your ice-cream, life is short.
