Home at Schopfheim

It has been a particularly warm week with most days in the 30's. Fortunately we are on the ground floor of a 2 storey house AND we have the canal in the back garden. I went down there this morning to wash out a garden container and the water was beautiful. The canal babbles along quickly so it is lovely and clear and clean. Roger and I didn't go for our usual Monday walk with the walking group as it was going to be hot and the walk was quite long. We need to do other things during the day as well as walking. Next Monday will be shorter and we look forward to catching up with all our friends again then.

Roger has been busy unpacking all his books. He found a very nice cupboard in the garage (we have just received the key from Frau Betting). So he emptied it, cleaned it up and we brought it inside. I think it looks very impressive where Roger has placed it. Now we just need another one to put the rest of Roger's books in!!

What about the soccer!! GO AUSSIES!!! (That's said very quietly..... we are completely outnumbered here....not a good feeling). Now our TV is kaput. What a tragedy. What are our options. Our Tim used to watch TV on his computer. We need to try and do this, but so far, no luck. Any one out there got any suggestions? We also need to find some Aussies near us so we can all shout together ON SUNDAY.

Last weekend we had a great time entertaining both on Saturday and Sunday. Those who know us well know we love having people in our home. So we were both happy come Sunday night and we had great food and stimulating conversation with new friends.
