Hey friends,

it's August 2nd already, and everyone seems to have gone, maybe watching les femmes? Anyway, post here what's happening lately if you like :)

Cheers,
Wolfgang

Weekend activity was fairly normal.
However I was reminded again that people are not afraid of Karma, and are willing to lie and cheat for a few extra $$ or €€. Basically I bought a car that was a non runner, for a fairly cheap price. I obviously suspected there is an issue with the motor, otherwise why would it be relative cheap. The guy was not poor, he has a nice house, and some bikes, so why lie about it? Especially as he knew I would find out... if he would have told me the truth it would have not changed the price, only saved me time., a lot of time :(
So now the motor has got to get out again.

So I was lying underneath the car, getting bolts out, disconnecting stuff when I got hydraulic oil dripping on my face. That's when I remembered why I studied motorcycle engineering many years ago, and not cars. Because bikes don't drip red dirty oil on your face!!! :o:@:|

I thought the Diary had 'had its day' but it refuses to die :D Thanks Wolfgang, now I have to find something interesting to say.

How about this ; Every day I search property websites to see what's new, I still can't sell my own house. However, I saw one recently that made me smile. It was empty except for the fact that EVERY room had a Guitar in it - no furniture, just a guitar. I wondered what the story was with that. There was even one in the bathroom ; it made me wonder if any wikiloopers play their guitar while sitting on the toilet :D ?

This is still the diary, right? What's next? Your favorite STD tracks? :D

Anyway, diary-wise I've been out and about filming short sequences I might use for some videos to go with WL tracks.

Reading the word "diarrhea" (well done for spelling that TeeGee) reminded me how we used to jokingly say,
"If Dire Straits and Chris Rea formed a band they'd have to call it Dire/Rea.

Of course Chris died last December so no more jokes. Co-incedentally however his most successful work came in the Shamrock DIARIES Album WOW!

Lol I wonder what other funny combination between bands and artists could be made, not necessarily bog related. They would merge and make a new band.

Maybe ABBA/KISS = Abacus? Cream + Bread = Toast? Eurythmics + UB40 = The Arithmetics :D
