Got up very early, cleared up the room, payed the hotel and went for breakfast. Took a round arround Ferrara to have a look at the defending wall, shopped a last time at conad for mozarrella buffalo and went home on the shortest way with a stopp after Verona. That have been fine days!

slept more than long after a final "too-much-beer". But we had fun with kletzmer musicians just round the corner of the hotel. In the afternoon we got the same place as on the first evening and we played only the second session because of the hoard of bubbles on my fingers left and right. But it was a fine evening and there was much crowd of people arround. Sometimes we had about 30 standing and listening. Finish of the evening was at Tiffany and the funny last order: "un' aqua mineral con gas" - "hehe". Brought me a beer and said: "gas inside anyway".

Slept long again, breakfast in the usual bar. Rent a bike and drove through the city, took a look at my modellkit-shop at Via Carlo Mayer. For the evening we had a fine place in the first session but had to move for the evening session. The second place was good though. Finished after Blue-Star-Bar and Tiffany at the market place.

slept long with enough snoring for more people than we are. Went to the buskers office through rain, rain and rain. Got our buskers package and a fine place in front of the castle. We didn't play the first session, but went for dinner. Played from 21:30 to 23:30, sold some CDs and finally finished the evening at the BlueStarBar and at Tiffanys.

arrived in Ferrara at 19:30, same hotel, same room as every year. Took a round through the city, some new features. In the pubs they still know us and offered us special beer-prices. Tiffany: "Haetten Sie die Guete zu zahlen?" :-)

Sitting on the sofa in the first floor, surfing or checking emails with my new laptop. Wlan works good even though the concrete.

Today I phoned with Bernd 2 hours and after that I was able to connect to the internet via wlan. For some reasons it is a very miracle connection. But my new laptop caliban is a fine toy and my sister used it very extensive this evening in the living room. Ok, let's see how it works in future.

Heavy thunderstorm. No net at all. Caliban cannot show his presence. Thanks for all birthhelpers.

On wednesday the trio recorded the new CD called "Mi viene da piangere". After several problems we got the sound and the files on our PC.

Today I met my dentist and she built up one destructed tooth and eliminated a colony of caries. Now I can bite again.

I think after 3 years I have learned some cat-talk vocabularys in cat-language:
mow-waooo: Feed me!
meeeeeeoo: Give me goodies!
muooh: Clean my toilet!
mrrrhh: Fine, you're here!
muw: yes.
mh: no,
meehhh: let me out!

*cat staring at me* - "hungry?" - mh - "toilett?" - mh - "Wanna go out?" - muw - "let's go" - muw! *off we go*; funny.

On friday evening I was in Imst and saw the act: "Krach im Hause Gott" from Felix Mitterer. I liked it. It was in the old spinning mill theatre of Imst.

On thursday evening Gregor and I startet a recording session, that lasted 2 hours and brought us very interesting material for the "best-of-sampler". Then we visited the new WELI, drank some beer and enjoyed the music of the 60s. I had decided to sleep in the SH3 (thanks David for the cheese!) so we could enjoy a very empty WELI very long. Finished the evening with a SH3-kitchen-beer-sit-in. On friday I woke up and did many things I had to do in town. One thing was a tiny little reissue of Gastophon (1994) and Saxophon (1993) for someone who burned down the songbooks in a campfire.

First I thought the Invasion from the Sahara startet, but this is only a singular criquet in our Garden, but 10 times greater than the other grasshoppers we have. Different to our neighbours we do not have an english lawn or a golf lawn, we have many many different plants, because we don't cut the grass very often. So we also have a lot of insects. This one is a big one:

I was wondering if my cat ever sleeps, so I tried to take a foto when he did. But he didn't. Look at his ear:
