The older I get, the better a morning without schedule sounds... 
G'Day...
-1°/10°C, 82% RH, frost and fog in the morning, bright sun for the rest of the day...
the usual routine...
ze GF leaves for work, while I'm carefully maintaining my caffeine intake...
Former employer still hasn't coughed up the outstanding dough, the Chamber of Labour now drags him into curt...
Speaking of dough, first (un)Employment Service cheque came in... not much lower then prev salary... good...
Job offers/responses? Nada...
While the Federation of Industry beats the publicity drum that we all have to work till 70, no one employs you at 62...
Awaiting some shipments, then ride over to my place to print, sign and scan documents/power of attorney for above legal case...
(figuring "... I can always do such at my workplace..." ze GF doesn't even have a printer nor scanner at her place...
)
Plans for hiring a bike trailer (€ 180,-/week) + installing a hitch on her Skoda (1.9ltr TDI automatic) getting more concrete;
crossing the Teutonic planes* by motorcycle to get to the IJmuiden ferry port (Scotland 2027) is just too dull and mind numbing...
* I'm in full agreement with ze GF in this... and having a car with a (removable) tow bar might always come handy...
(New) Phone is almost configured to my liking, still some nicks with getting a proper document reader (*.doc, *.xls, .pdf...)
that doesn't involve a payment plan or the dreaded Office 365 Copilot dragging all my documents into the cloud...
Well, on with the show...
