Ampelmann

Oh it's been another one of those days at Flying Green Monkey Schloss. Meh. Anyway, Struggled today. First there were leaves, then there was the garden looking nice, then there were birds (that kept flying off) and then there was Ampelmann. He's the green traffic light man from Berlin (although I've seen em in Heidelberg, too). The guy who designed them was from East Germany and due to the socialist state, he didn't copyright the design. Roll on a few years and someone with a cheeky sense of enterprise copyrighted it, made shed loads of money and they sell merchandise, such as this keyring. That's right - I've bought into capitalism (SHOCK HORROR!)

Have a big day tomorrow, so I'd best get my derriere into gear. T'ra
