Four wives mall

signs in engrish

The other day I promised you a nice sign - here you go.
I loved it.

I just saw that this also falls into the Engrish category.
I don’t know if you can read the small print about the big “4 wives” writing.
But there they typed it “wifes” instead. :>>

—————–

Letztens habe ich Euch ein klasse Schild versprochen.
Hier isses.
Mir hat’s gut gefallen.

Habe grade gesehen, dass dies auch in die “engrish” Kategorie faellt.
Ich weiss nicht, ob Ihr’s erkennen koennt, wenn ihr auf das Bild klickt und es in groesser anguckt, aber ueber dem grossen Print haben sie doch noch einen Fehler eingebaut :>>

This little Beauty was giving me a flight show last Friday on the Golf course.

It took me a while to find him in my books and my gallery.
But I knew I had seen him (and IDed him) before.

It amazes me, how far I did come in identifying birds.
I would have never guessed that I would be able to find bird IDs myself one day.
But I am getting there.

Here are two more shots of the Whiskered tern in my archives from the day I visited the Small Pools.

Want to see some cool birds shots? - Check out the Voting booth for the November Photo challenge at Birdfoum!

No tour today

No Ras Mohamed tour for me today.

The driver never showed up to pick me up.
A few phone calls and half an hour later,
he’s still not there.

The guy in the office handling these things,
obviously as incompetent as the driver.

When I took a closer look at the text on my receipt,
I understood why things are not working so well there.

The guy that sold me the tour is better than the Rest.
I will get my money back and a free tour on Monday.

IF they manage to pick me up this time.

Jew.....what? Engrish lesson part 8

Engrish lesson 8

It is a hard word to spell.
I think there’s also an American and a British English version :>>

How do I manage to always get typos in these posts? |-|

More engrish lessons

Will be out and about again all weekend.
See you all on Sunday :wave:

Shiver

OK, the pool is officially cold now.
Yuck.

But, after a short run, it was not too bad.
My system almost went into “shut down” mode, but only almost.

Yeah, I’m there again.
Getting my lazy butt out there and start at scratch zero.

I didn’t do shit for the last 4 months.
Just the occasional dog walk, a few Minisitups here and there and
the attempt of running a few meters.

I didn’t get too much weight back, maybe 3 kilos (we yet have to buy a scale).
But some parts of my body turn into old oranges again.

We won’t that to get worse now,do we?
Nope.

So, the mornings are cool, I have no darn excuse.

The distance of the run this morning was almost not worth mentioning,neither the time of my swimming.
But I have been out there. That counts.

So, what’s your plan?
The last time we talked about it was August 20th.
Any changes for anyone?
Any plans now that the weather is cooler and we have no more excuses?
