Visions of Duisburg. It was OK. A little less vibrant than Leverkusen on a Saturday Winter's afternoon.

Firt time into Edeka in Dusseldorf. Initially though that it was a really upmarket swanky version of Dusseldorf. And then i see these selection of tea for sale. Yorkshire tea on the bottom shelf no less. 😂
What a supermarket. Dusseldorf lives up to its name.

So I started writing just before Christmas, dogfooding my own app. So far the grit is working. Although not reaching the 1000 words per day target. but still making a good go of it.

I am also looking for testers for this app. DM me if you interested for more.

What I want in 2026.

To help start my writing habit, I have created a simple webapp. Calling it as "Writer" for now. So far, I am on a two day streak. I am writing on the day's thoughts and observations.

Is creating an app an extreme way of enabling my habit? Who knows.

I don't remember The Ashes being so crazy. Will it be another test that finishes after two days? The English are already batting their second innings at the end of day one.

Accompanied my son for his trip at the Köln HBF this morning. The morning light was magical.

I so much want to do a third person Popeye beat-em-up.

Proper over the top violence in that style.

Anyone got 50k for a prototype?

Started Sunday with the news that Aussies beat the English to win the Ashes. The only question is whether it will be 5-0?
It started quite competitively when it was over in two days.
Bazball is making test matches entertaining again.

Happy 4th advent.
Not long before 2025 comes to a close.
It sure was a hell of an event
let's hope that 2026 will give us more than most.

I realised some days ago that I don't write anymore, I type. I still jot down one word or two, but I don't take notes or write passage of text. I definitely don't write a letter. Is it the sign of the digital times, how often do you write?

Extraordinary courage from Ahmed al Ahmed, a Muslim, 43-year-old father of two, who bravely risked his life to save his neighbors celebrating Hanukkah.

Praying for his full & speedy recovery.

And so deeply inspired by his example.

Hey, I did a quick prototype of an idea, mostly to try out replit.com.
It's a crowd source mapping for places that is good for video conferencing and phone calls.

The Ashes at the WACA is proving to be a tight match. England is given it a red hot go.
