Curious to see where our holiday will be taking us.. Will it be the south of Spain as planned or will it become Rundhaus?
RT @bigfurrymonster Let's buy Iceland and sink it. +1!

First thing this morning Ted decided he needs to do some intense vacuumcleaning.

The ultra cool sport volvo is back! And it brought a bike with it!

Wishing all who are stuck in remote locations for the weekend good luck and try to enjoy yourselves. Nothing you can do about the situation.

Ted's awake again. With very red excited cheeks...

scratch those macadamian nuts... couldn't find them :(
Ted is off to bed. I am now having lunch/breakfast with warm pistolet with brie, honey and macademian nuts

Ted is investigating how the vacuumcleaner works...

Seems like the forecast of the most amazing and warm day hitting temperatures of 18 degrees is not going to happen after all...

Nigerian-scams have moved to Ireland now!

Awesome!! Nigerian-scams have moved to Ireland now!

Today, to my delight I received the following email, not only giving me a new friend in Ireland, but also promising me to become just a bit more wealthy!:

---
Hello,

I am an investment analyst based in Ireland and I want to briefly discuss
some investment partnership ideas with you. These ideas are based on the
recent sliding foreign exchange markets the US and the world market has
experienced between 2009/2010 as a result of the global recession. I have
a network of business associates that work with an investment bank trading
foreign exchange and crude oil futures.

Early last month, my business associates at the investment bank introduced
an idea and asked me to find another partner that can represent us outside
our circle and complete a deal that would be profitable to all parties
involved. The initial part of this deal materialized as a result of the
current price fluctuations in the world foreign exchange markets that the
recession brought about. My client that partners with the banks made good
trading bets on foreign exchange that yielded up to $65 million in profit
cash. The trading account is an anonymous one and there is no records of
the account with the investment bank as of today. They are also not aware
of the amount of profit that has accumulated on this trading account since
when it was opened.

This particular trading account is only opened for customers based in your
region and therefore are tied to the banks in your country. What we want
to do now is to move the funds so we can raise money and invest in
businesses and properties and that's where you come in. I offer you the
opportunity to join us in bringing this deal to fruition by allowing us
use your status to make the funds yours and in the process enable us move
the funds to your bank account and we are willing to offer you a
reasonable percentage for allowing us use your status.

In June 2009, I lost my job as an operations manager for a securities
company, which shut all its operations earlier this year. Since then my
family have suffered significant financial hardship. I am a victim of
economic circumstance and all this has been brought about by the current
world recession. I really need your assistance so we make this project
happen so I get my financial life back together.

I would like you to send me an email to edwardkingi@volkersaquarium.com if
you are interested in this partnership and I will provide you more
information.

Warm Regards,
Edward Kingi.
Dublin, Ireland.

Happy birthday @olafdepolaf, @BrianKeetman and @ArfatMulla!
Really enjoyed sitting in the sun this morning! Shame it was in a traffic jam rather than on a nice terrace with fresh coffee.
