Forex en braaivleis

Ek, Werner en Micha by die braaivleisvuurtjie / Lodie, Werner and Micha around the braai.

Goeie middag!

Ons beleef nou 'n stukkie winter hier. So voel dit ten minste vir my op die fiets.

Ek is vanoggend 7-uur weg uit Siegen na Altenstadt vir die KLR se diens. Ek moes eenkeer vir koffie stop, was totaal gevries op die fiets. Ek sal moet warmer klere onder my ryklere aantrek. Rusland is nog baie meer noord (en koeler) as waar ek tans is.

Ek kry vanaand so tussen 6 en 7 my fiets terug.

Die laaste paar aande was bedrywig. Gisteraand het twee ou vriende, Werner en Roswitha, my vir ete genooi. Ons het heerlike gebraai, nog lekkerder geeet, en Werner se peermampoer is 'n simfonie sonder einde (overgezetzynde 'n bodemlose put).

Ek is orals met vriendskap oorlaai. Baie dankie al julle wonderlike mense! Werner en Roswitha, Micha, bis zum Wiedersehen in Suedafrika! Anja, baie dankie vir jou gasvryheid en al die rondry!!

Ek glo die forex-probleem is nou opgelos. Baie dankie vir die dosyne e-posse van mense wat voel soos ek voel.

Die beste vir laaste. Julle het nou al my lofsange oor die FNB-tak van Naboom gelees. Sedert twee weke het ons 'n nuwe bestuurder daar. Johan Jansen het hom gisteraand in 'n e-pos aan my voorgestel en 'n foto van sy motorfiets aangeheg: 'n Identiese KLR soos myne!

Hoe kan mens met so 'n bank verkeerd gaan?


Hello!

It feels like winter on the bike. After having wonderful summer weather the last week or two the temperature suddenly plunged to only 9 degrees this morning.

I left Siegen at 7 this morning to take the KLR to Altenstadt for its service. I had to stop half way. I was frozen on the bike. I have to put on more and warmer clothes beneath the riding gear. Otherwise the colder weather in Russia would make riding unpleasant.


I should get back the KLR tonight between 6 and 7.

Last night Werner and Roswitha invited us for a braai. Like the previous days I was spoilt and treated like a long lost son. The food was delicious, and Werner's home-made pear mampoer like a ride in a car without brakes - dangerous!


The last couple of days I was invited and received with such warm friendship by so many people. Thank you very much! Anja, for your hospitality and friendship and transporting me from A to Z, Micha, Werner and Roswitha for last night, THANK YOU!


I believe the forex issue is settled NOW. Thank you for the dozens of emails I've received.

Then the best: You know how I feel about our bank in Naboom. We have a new manager there since two weeks. Yesterday I receiced an email him, Johan Jansen. He introduced himself and attached a photograph of his bike: An identical KLR like mine!

How can one go wrong with a bank like that!
