Two policemen randomly stopped me this morning in a residential area and searched my bag. First time I even talk to one in four years here. No explanation. I was surprisingly ticked off.

What's up with the limited vocabulary? I can't stand "it's got so much character" anmore.  | | | | | I love the "characterful" phrase of this programme |

You can lever off the oval plastic disc at the bottom, let the water drain, leave it somewhere warm to dry and hopefully it will work again | This user would like to thank marton for this useful post: | |

Mine was one of those you just put in the Philips glas to charge. I don't think it would have been possible to open it like that.
Thanks though. I've gone Migros now and am very happy with the new one.
(Got loads of Philips Sonicare toothbrush heads to pass on now  )

Put those addictive cookies to a v.e.r.y inconvenient place, a hassle to reach.
Didn't work.

Today my next door neighbour and I have both configured our Tesla 3s and we both have specified metallic grey. Will this lead to confusion??

Raiffeisen offers me a statistic about where my money goes to in details. 
It's not the kind of attention I appreciate!
Bankers must be r.e.a.l.l.y bored these days. |

My neighbour's Christmas lights are so bright, they are filtering through my blinds. Astronauts on the International Space Station may also have words for Herr Klaus.

Meanwhile, we went to Italy today to get my daughter some donkey sausage.
Alas, they were sold out, so we had to buy horse!
Bunch of asses!

I had too much filling for my pork tourtiere this year. And there was also flakey pastry left over, so I'll be having pork tortiere and jam tart for dinner.
(And I forgot to buy beer!)
