Brian's Watching You

The German version of the Magic Roundabout is called Das Zauberkarussell, and Brian The Snail isn't Brian in the German version, he's Hugo Schneckerich. Most of the other names have changed too - eg. Zebedee is Zebulon. As I've said before I like a lot of the window decoration around here.

We were sleeping in relays last night, taking it in turns to be miserable as the wind blew and the rain hammered down. I felt like I was just drifting off into one of those really good bits of sleep (you know, when you sense everything closing down and you're being wrapped in a warm feeling of otherness) when Moot started with the Get Up You Lazy Auslaender.

He's really not stopped doing that all day. He wants out, he wants in, he wants to sit in the open doorway and watch all the heat flying out the door. Pest.

Other news is scant. I got my Zeugnis (Certificate) from my old job - you need these to show employers that you have worked for someone and why you left. This is instead of the writing for a reference malarkey that there is in Britain. It's a very nice, complimentary piece of work. I'd prefer to still have the job but there you go, when there's no more work, there's no more work.
