We get to go to London

I just booked our tickets to London in April. Just Nicole and I for a Mom and Daughter cultural weekend. We want to go to the Tate Modern, The National Gallery, The British Museum, Kews gardens, Hill song church London, and see "Singing in the Rain" the musical. 4 full days. I had better start walking everyday so I can manage this trip! Thank you Juergen, you are the best! I took Nicole to London when she was 5 years old, and again when she was 9. Now she is 19 and it's a long over due return trip. And because she is studying art this makes the visit that much more interesting. I remember showing her the Monet and Picasso paintings in the National Gallery when she was 9. Maybe her own work will Hang in the Tate one day. And I took her to see My Fair Lady. She sang "All I want is a room somewhere" on the streets of London. And now we want to see "Singing in the rain". That use to be Nicole’s favorite movie. It's suppose to snow tomorrow. It's so cold and dark here. I think I was getting depressed with the cold and darkness. The hope of this trip is sunshine to me. It will help me to get through another few months of winter. this is Nicole feeding the birds in Trafalgar Square when she was 9years old.

chicken coop idea

Why not start with an IBC and cut a hole for the door? You could build closed laying boxes into it, and something for the chickens to roost on. Put some straw or saw dust on the floor. You could add vents to the side for air. If it sat inside a chicken run that you can walk into, the chickens could be safe, dry and happy. I have an extra IBC. Maybe this could be my chicken house? I bet I could even plant the outside of it with mud and grass for extra insulation and good looks.

The Opel Agilia

I think I don't want to spend the money for the VW New Beetle. It's a very cute and safe car, but cost about 17,000Euros new. I can find it for 13,000Euros (this is the most basic model) but that's more then I would want to spend. I don't really drive that much. I'm pretty cheep at heart. I need real value for my money. I keep thinking we really should take advantage of the money Germany is offering to trade old cars in for 2500Euros towards a new car. If I buy a car that's around 10,000 Euros, then the Government is actually going to pay 25% of the cost of that car. That's really a very good deal. Since I know I will need a new car in the near future, I feel I should get a new 10,000 Euro car. The Opel Agilia is around 9,900 Euros. It's got 5 doors, and room for 5. It is pretty safe, and comes with a 6 year warranty. I would not call it my dream car, but I could easily afford it. I'm trying to be wise here. There are other cars in thi
