Even before lockdown, the local deli counters in the big stores were only open 2 or 3 days a week. They clearly weren't paying their way and when they closed during lockdown I suspected that would be the opportunity for them to shut for good. None of the local ones have reopened - is this a more widespread closure?

The former ticket offices from the abandoned railway station of Montzen (B), where once train tickets could be bought.

Trying to balance a triangle on a ball is a real challenge (lol), hope y'all have a great week !

Jimmy is sensitive to loud thunderstorms (he doesn't like them). Thunder and lightning make him hug an interior wall, literally--and he won't eat until it's over. We've now had several days of heavy rainfall, and Jimmy looked like he needed a "pick-me-up", so I wrapped the warm clothes from the dryer around him, on the kitchen counter. Anything different gets his attention, & he enjoyed the nest for a while.

xena likes to tell the time when she is sleeping and it's currently counter sleepwise

The change from Daylight Saving Time back to Standard Time has been a source of consternation for the cats as I try to shift their feeding times an hour later. It is expressed with counter stalking and dramatic licking of the scoop that I use to dole out portions of dry food--as if to say "I am on the brink of starvation".

I can not get them to understand the concept. :D

 

L to R: Batman, Jimmy, Guru

Guru is almost 8 months old, muscular and solid, but you can see the kitten in him still, peering into that dish towel.

The wood grain on the bar counter is so beautiful.

Best of viewed large. A pair of ospreys were trying to drive off my nesting couple. It didn't work. It was mostly posturing but it looked like war!!

The gold and silver pegs used as counters on a Cribbage Board which have seen much use over the use as Niqui and I always play when we're away and relaxing.

The rich smell of Sugar Cookie runs through out the shop, love the blue jar!
