Normally I write this blog very quickly before bedtime. Without second thought. Tonight at my gym club (old men’s volley. I’m more tired of laughting than of “exercising”) I reported that in the first three days in the south of Spain I will walk on the beach. The first day regular beach, nude beach 2nd day, the third day gay beach. Or did I write this anywhere before? But what about the filmmaker? I hope Leon, my horse, will behave. Sometimes male horses present themselves so obnoxious. At a gaystrand something the like does not fit.
Tonight, before going to the gymclub, I wanted to give my new pony some exercise. Because I didn’t have time today to go walking for hours, I just went riding Leon for an hour. Unbelievable, what a perfect beast: Indestructible, uphill and down, without breaking sweat, willing, through mud and water, over logs and under bridges. A compliment and even an advertisement for Rijstal The Reelaer Raalte Overijssel. They have perfectly trained and educated this animal. Icelanders are the best. Ladies, find a new partner, try an Icelander: sweet, willing and hard working. Moreover, carrying you beyond the threshold.
Now I still don’t have a new home for pony Luka. I’m working at it. Guest dog Luna has been back to its owner since a few days and now we are ready for our new shepherd bitch, black Tosca.
Today I had a meeting in Epen about sponsorship of Mama Alice. We consider the possibility of placing advertising on my website, paid to Mama Alice. Also we are asking sponsorship 1 cnt per km. We want to spread fliers in the region. I had talks about managing the website, lettering Mama Alice on my dress. T-shirt or polo shirt? A polo has a collar and buttons. So is a little chic. Further discussed in Epen on horse and dog and sponsorship of Mama Alice. This consensus still has contact with A. Mtr. be included. But he is back on vacation. And time is running out.
Friend Ben, who made the trip from Livingstone in Africa has left open, advised me to dress well anough. One is easily overgrown and people may take you for a tramp.
In between, I must still maintain the vineyard, harvest it. Last year’s harvest will be bottled in the next few days together with brother Jack in Eindhoven, one hour away from here. That will also take 1 or two days. Monday night I am expected at a friend’s in the Achterhoek. Probably back on Tuesday. I wish I had two lives. Only with driving I have more than seven lives. Otherwise I would have been dead since a long time.
The day before yesterday I got GPS instruction from Rob. Rob, thanks again. In the weekend I want to practice it. I’m sure it is going to work. If everything works out too easy,mmay be the whole trip will be too simple. Next time ….. more.
