Has it already been four weeks? It doesn’t feel like it. I feel like it’s the second week… There is room for different interpretations for this statement. The first one is the optimistic one. If time goes by fast, it means you are enjoying yourself. The second one is rational. If this feels like a second week, what have I actually accomplished the last two weeks? The third interpretation can be made based on my prior articles on this site. If I have no sense of spatial orientation, I could also have no temporal orientation. That’s fair, but I would tend to believe the first two theses. „The second half kick-off“ weiterlesen

Nostalgia and the bank holidays
On Sunday Dominik and I stood up at 10 a.m. and we went to the gym. We did some sport for a couple of hours and went then home.
The typical German tourists
Of course we climbed up one hill here in Belfast. We saw this hill from the Zoo already and some humans at the top, from this moment on I knew, that I wanted to climb up that hill.
Friday and a busy day
It was Friday again and I knew that it could be very busy. Gareth gave me another task to allocate the tickets to all members of tier 2. It was easy at the beginning but it got more and more difficult because everybody needs to get the same amount of tickets at the end of the day. The que got filled up and I had problems to allocate the tickets because more tickets flooded in. Providentially I had to „Friday and a busy day“ weiterlesen
No hotels anymore
Yesterday I decided to go the Ulster Museum. The entry to the Ulster Museum is near the Botanic Garden. The surprise was that the Ulster Museum has no entry cost and it was quite busy there. The museum is divided in Art, History, Science, History of Belfast and nature. It is unbelievable, I think they have a huge collection of everything. The most interesting place was the Science area where „No hotels anymore“ weiterlesen

Hill Climb
Today was the Hill Climb event and of course I won’t miss it, so Konrad and I went to nine o‘ clock on work. There we met with our colleagues at the Menor. (The Menor is a Villa on the property of the museum) Audi had exhibited five cars and some other people exhibited there oldtimer. At first we helped our colleague to lay a network cable outside. We crimped it three times but it never worked and suddenly I had a idea: maybe the distance is to long? Long story short, we attached a little switch and it worked! For the rest of the day we had nothing to do anymore, except to fill the generator two times with petrol. Sadly I couldn’t enjoy the whole day because I had some problems with my pollen allergy.
All in all, the motor race went well except two cars had a small accident. Before I write more about the cars it’s better I show you some pictures because: one picture is worth a thousand words.
