of course Rufus *had to* visit Matthew street while visiting #Liverpool

Met John Lennon and Cilla Black, saw the famous Cavern Club (and later went down in the Cavern Pub next to it) and had to create a picture of the "Fab Five" (The #Beatles + Rufus 🤣)

before "hungry" turns into "hangry": grab a bite at Northern Soul Grilled Cheese in #Manchester

definitely one of Rufus' #favouriteplaces to be 🤤
maybe you can spot him "sticking" at the bar?

Enjoyed the good weather, had quite some fun and many pleasurable encounters with passers by

got blessed with wondering faces, giggles and smiles from passers-by -- making walkies extra-special for me 💕

exploring the realms of #Reeperbahn, St. Pauli while visiting #Hamburg is kind of a must

There's so much to see - like #Davidwache, the #Panoptikum and many other, more or less dodgy establishments

@spotter-chas.bsky.social took good care of Rufus so he didn't end up drunk in the gutter - or worse

it's been a nice (albeit shorter than usual) walk through the city of #Oldenburg again

looking forward to the next walks!
