Garden, the forgotten terrace and Graspop

 
16th of June 2024

Sun Jun 16 2024, 6:11:33 pm CET Another perfect Sunday, chores around the house but mainly it was to the the garden in order. My mission was getting the back-terrace tiles clean from "the slippery layer of bird evilness". Yes the terrace is located under trees - below the meeting place of all the birds in the neighbourhood it seems. "yes, come and sit down right here next to me and take a dump my friend", is what the evil birds are telling each other. I can just hear them! Their friends are sitting in another tree above my car at the front of the house...

It was a nice day with a nice result after all the work in the garden. Nice and pretty and the terrace tiles are like new. It was planned to go to a restaurant, but we decided to have a cosy dinner at home since the youths have a very busy week, starting off with exams. It continues with celebrations, meeting up with friends and then they will work at a festival called  Graspop Metal Meeting This is one of the bigger metal music festival, an old school rock event. It is not at all their kind of music, they are simply there to earn money. But I am sure it will be a nice memory/experience for them, it's a pretty spectacular music line-up..

OK, another busy weekend day that seemed to just have flew by. Kaboom, now I am sitting here on a Sunday night. Nicely tired, stiff back and ready for the bed. I am looking forward reading a nice book on my Kobo e-reader.
