  1. tarantula -> tick way more dangerous because of the diseases it can spread Our company has small presents for customers: tick-tools with our logo.
  2. best -> Leonberger Overall the best dog for me living with kids outside village. Very friendly but also protective, trained for water rescue because of the ponds around,...
  3. whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa -> covid At the beginning of covid a race team owner said that it would be best that all drivers should try to infect themself with corona before the season starts. The drivers said stupid, we won't risk our life for racing. The owner was puzzled, he was from a generation when in average 3-4 out of 24 drivers died each year at racing. I remember a TV show at Hockenheim circuit. 5 drivers were interviewed, 3 of them died within a few months: Bellofs, Winkelhocck, de Angelis De Angelis played piano atthe show.
  4. Not cannibalism. Parasites,. There are a dozen or so caterpillars who are carnivorous. The parasitic ones are the ones in the surroundings of our house. Else where aer some who activly hunt
  5. Not connected to canalisation and lot of rain - we were cleaning our wastewater ponds. Some 'dusky large blue' butterflies around who like muddy surroundings. But did you know they have very interesting caterpillars? They feed on ant larvae in the ant nest.
  6. choices -> pest and cholera Saying in many languages, it is like choosing between pest and cholera
  7. As so often, heat was followed by a thermal thunderstorm the next day. 50 litres rain per square metre ib just one hour, Some smaller flooding in neighbour village. For us it was good, enough water in the well now.
  8. traps -> horse owners They often do 'electro' fences .and not massive wooden ones. But many of them are weekend riders only and don't control the fences daily.
  9. gauche -> parrying dagger The main gauche is a subtype of the left wielded parrying dagger. Hmm, I am left handed and I wield the rapier left handed when fencing (did modern pentalthlon when highschool). So what is a main gauche for left handed people? The parrying elements don't matter ,but the thumb ring depends on hand. The normal combination, rapier and main gauche
  10. 1st of May is workfree in Germany, Bicycle trip with almost WHOLE family, mainly tandems with kid trailers. 80 kilometres to visit a bicycle race. We visited at the climb to the highest mountain. Before we visited a falconry which trains falcons to keep birds away from the runway at Frankfurt airport. Return by railway which had waggons for bicycles. 29C and sun From the hill top near our house we can see the hilttop of the Grosser Feldberg. But seeing and reaching it per bike are two totally opposite thihgs
  11. movie -> Good Bye Lenin! Just watched it again sunday. The mother of a boy is a member of the east german party. She gets a stroke and falls into coma. German is re-united when she awokes. Docs tell the boy that she may die if she gets a shock because of it. So the boy does fake news with a video camera, collects old east german food tins and refills them, just anything to hide that the re-union happened.
  12. ants -> zombie There are several parasiteaffecting the brain of their victim. Some make ants climb up plants. Once at the sun and way above ground the ant is killed and the fungus releases its spores spreading in a wide area.
  13. effect-> rotor-sail My god-child is an engineer on one. It has Flettner-rotors which use the Magnus effect.
  14. 3C and very stormy. Tried a warm soup from Grünkern. Put it into grist mill. Roasted some onions with bacon pieces. added water, vegs, milled Grünkern, an egg and some cream. Grünkern is dried with beech wood burning so it has a slight smoky taste, together with the roast aroma it tastes fine.
