  • Dirt

    Please be aware what it is you’re cycling on, what you’re walking on, what you’re living on. Dirt is not dirt, it’s soil ….. If you have time, pour yourself a cup of coffee and watch this movie.

  • It’s lonely in the modern world.

    I just watched some pages of “Unhappy Hipsters” and laughed out loud. This site makes me happy, just because of the humorous text written with each photo. The photos show a space and atmosphere I definitely hate. I’m not a hipster ! Another thrilling afternoon spent playing “measure the grout.” (Photo: Dean Kaufman; Dwell)

  • Slow Blues in C

    A new TV and a new audio set-up, so the record player needed to be reinstalled.  Played 10 Years after, 40 years later !  If you like to see the complete song :  

  • bus-car-bicycle-velomobile

    Every now and then there is someone who wants to show the difference. And the idea is so simple, that it’s being copied easily. I wonder how many photos were taken with this setup … The first one was taken in the Netherlands, (I think in Amersfoort) for the ENWB. A here is a follow-up…

  • To the Provincial Government …

    Yesterday, me and most of my colleagues went to the provincial government in Middelburg. We were there to ask for support for our employer. Our employer is the only producer of elementary Phosphorus in western-Europe. Over the past 100 years all small and non-profitable phosphorus-furnaces in Europe stopped producing. Only with much knowledge , experienced…

  • A developed country is …

  • Farmageddon

    If you’re watching your television with 50 channels of shit and feeling bored, then maybe it’s a good idea to watch this documentary.  And then think until you can’t see straight.   I took a two-hour ride in my velomobile to think it over and over . Touring in my Quest is an ideal way…

    before;  I couldn’t even see the cellar in our garden …   after; I can go down the cellar steps again.   A lot of spiders, frogs and other creepy creatures down there ……

They flew from Spain to Belgium, bought on Sunday two cheap (scrapyard) bicycles from a Turkish merchant guy and started to tour through Belgium and the Netherlands. Two Spanish girls looking for adventure … The weather is like…

    … singing his old (and new) songs. We saw him last Friday 18-8-2012 in Gent (Belgium) where he was giving “act de presence” for four days; and all 4 days he had full house (completely sold out!). Although he regular sings another text than we’re used to hear from his LP’s, cassette’s, CD’s and DVD’s…

  • when everything fails …

    … I certainly look like Clint in the previous post. First the pump I use for our pond burned through and I had to buy a new one; then I found out that the cleats of my Shimano sandals couldn’t be simply renewed by new ones, because the iron plate inside the rubber sandal can’t…
