It was wonderful, I came back to Germany from Afghanistan for 2 weeks R&R, and found that Germany was basically the same temp. as Kabul! Although, Mazaar-e-Sherif is still hotter than both.

At least there were breezes in Germany, too... altogether, the weahter made me happy :-) sun sun sun!

And that meant that everyone at Ampifest (2-day alternative industrial and rock festival, inc. VNV Nation) were superbly scantily dressed. We stayed in a hotel in Koln for 3 days, but didn't get any photos at all.

I went swimming a few times, which was great. Went to a BBQ.

I haven't been online because a lightning strike broke my network card, made the router smoke, melted the DSL line splitter and has caused a line fault meaning that there is no digital connection even though the phone (somehow) still works. They're working on the line.

Oh, and gave massive fusses to my two beautiful and character-ful kittens!

I've been working through (post-spam-filter) 300 emails or so from the past 2 weeks.

I hope you've all been enjoying the summer :-)
