#Welt! Bist du noch da?

Ich sehe schwarz …

… für meine #Biofahrradständer. Ebenso wird dies nich’ so dolle mit den geschützten #Pinkelstellen werden.

#Klimawandel, ach wat! Trockene #Sommer gab es früher auch, höre ich die #Leute sagen und diese Leute sind in der Regel nicht dumm, setzen sich aber reihenweise #Swimmingpools in den #Garten. Dies erschüttert mich.

Vorteil, im Herbst können wir uns verschiedene Arbeitsgänge sparen und das
#Popcorn direkt auf den #Feldern eintüten. Spart auch #Energie!

Bei angenehmen
#Temperaturen dann gleich mal auf den #Drahtesel und vorher noch einen #Kaffee und was auf die #Ohren:

Bleibt senkrecht und gesund!

            A WORD TO SMOKERS
  The cigarette is wonderfully popular with those who spend an hour or so at [t]he #Thorndon baths, but not so with the caretaker, not that he is necessarily prejudiced against #smoking, but that he does object to smoking at the baths, since there results an annoying #litter and a certain #pollution of the water. Notice boards have been erected forbidding smoking, but bathers apparently are an illiterate race of people, and cannot read them rightly, and though #cigarettes go out in the line ahead of the patrolling caretaker they seemingly ignite spontaneously as he goes past. Appeals and notice boards having little effect, the Reserves Committee of the council has now decided upon a more formal method of discouragement, and has invited the #Police Department to detail a plainclothes constable to attend the baths as a guest and rough note-taker. Interesting comments upon the subject of smoking in public bath enclosures, in spite of plain warnings and prohibitions, may follow for those whose names may be noted down.

@vxo Yeah, I know, everyone likes the #GP200 with the pogo pins.

  • Personally, I think that with the expired #MagSafe patent they could include such a safe-breaking connection.

Or even better: JUST INCLUDE A #HeadphoneJack (like any sane person wants)!

My friend convinced me to start swimming again on Monday mornings at the Britannia pool (pre 2019 we used to swim weekly here and at other places). It was never a fancy pool (mostly original 1970s fixtures) but it's got noticeably worse. The hot tub, steam room, and wading pool are all broken and out of order indefinitely. Really puts in context the cancellation of a the project to build a new pool for this community last year.😔

TEPID BATH SPORTS
The Tepid Baths should prove the centre of attraction to the sporting and music-loving public to-morrow night, when a programme of exceptional merit will be given, comprising novelty water sports and a high class concert, in which several well-known artists are appearing. An item which should appeal to all will be that given by Mr. A. Bishaw, of Honolulu and Sydney, on the Hawaiian steel guitar and ukulele, and the fancy #diving display by Mr. W. Hicks, ex-champion of New Zealand, who is considered by experts to be the best “stunt” diver in the Dominion to-day. Chinese lanterns reflected in the water will add to the gaiety of the evening.
