    Wol Euler: ?
    Agatha Macbeth: Very good thanks
    Agatha Macbeth: I see K left her bags behind :p
    Wol Euler: yeah
    Agatha Macbeth: Untidy girl
    Wol Euler: I guess they are here to stay, now, as she's gone to Africa and nobody but Storm has the right to send them away
    Agatha Macbeth grins
    Agatha Macbeth: What's she doing there?
    Wol Euler: research and treatment on Ebola
    Wol Euler: more on the research and investigation than treatment
    Agatha Macbeth: Oh great
    Agatha Macbeth: Thought she might have gone to visit Sun or something
    Wol Euler: no such luck
    Wol Euler: she's there to work for humanity, as it were
    Agatha Macbeth: Nice
    Agatha Macbeth: Well someone has to do it I guess
    Wol Euler: nobody *has* to, I believe, but some do volunteer
    Wol Euler: more power to them
    Agatha Macbeth: Yeh
    Agatha Macbeth: She's a cute cookie in more ways than one
    Wol Euler nods.
    Wol Euler: hardly recognizable as the very angry teenager we first met ...
    Wol Euler: good for her
    Wol Euler applauds!
    Agatha Macbeth: Anger isn't always a bad thing
    Wol Euler: indeed, it just has to be focussed and used properly
    Agatha Macbeth: Good motivation
    Wol Euler nods.
    Agatha Macbeth: How was work?
    Wol Euler: didn'T go
    Agatha Macbeth: Oh
    Wol Euler: migraine, spent the day at home
    Agatha Macbeth: Oh
    Agatha Macbeth: Sorry to hear that
    Wol Euler: thanks
    Agatha Macbeth: And no chemists open a Sunday I suppose?
    --BELL--1315
    Wol Euler: not here :)
    Agatha Macbeth: Ah here comes QT
    Wol Euler: but I hve all I need
    Agatha Macbeth: Buona sera amico
    Wol Euler: hello qt
    Qt Core: Hi Agatha, Wol
    Agatha Macbeth: Hope you're fit
    Qt Core: 15 km of bicycle today
    Agatha Macbeth: Wonderful
    Qt Core: can't believe yet i survived it
    Agatha Macbeth: Don't your legs get tired?
    Wol Euler: hehehehehh
    Qt Core: i will feel it tomorrow morning
    Wol Euler nods.
    Agatha Macbeth: Oh dear
    Qt Core: it is almost fun, just awoke i will be fun, at lunch break i would need someone to lift me from my chair ;-)
    Wol Euler: but every time, you will feel it a little less
    Wol Euler smiles.
    Qt Core: *fine
    Agatha Macbeth: I'm wondering if cyclig beats walking
    Qt Core: i wanted to visit the newky restored Villa reale di Monza, but there were several decades meter long queue: https://www.google.it/search?q=villa...ed=0CAYQ_AUoAQ
    Agatha Macbeth looks
    Wol Euler: nice to be the king, eh?
    Qt Core: so i went to the surrounding park and beached myself on the first lawn i found
    Agatha Macbeth: That's a quaint little place
    Wol Euler: nice garden too
    Wol Euler: heh, yes
    Qt Core: in the same park, just on the other side there is the F1 GP track
    Wol Euler: ah!
    Agatha Macbeth: Wonder how many people could live in it
    Qt Core: especially if you build someloft in those 4/5 meter high rooms
    Wol Euler: as long as they kept away from the racecars, probably lots
    Agatha Macbeth: Quite a few I should think
    Wol Euler: well, probably upwards of two hundred people *did* live in it
    Wol Euler: indoor servants, outdoor servants, guards, gardeners, horse-people ...
    Agatha Macbeth: Sure as hell beats a tower block
    Qt Core: fosome strange arrangement there are still people living in the park in what some decades ago were farmer houses and now very luxury ones
    Wol Euler nods.
    Agatha Macbeth: Good to know they have some use
    Qt Core: there are issues as they still pay taxes as farmer houses ;-)
    Agatha Macbeth: Good trick if you can do it
    --BELL--1330
    Agatha Macbeth makes tea
    Wol Euler holds out a cup
    Agatha Macbeth pees in it
    Agatha Macbeth: Enjoy Nehru
    Wol Euler pokes you
    Agatha Macbeth: Yeee
    Agatha Macbeth: Wonder where Bruce is?
    Wol Euler: good question, haven't seen him in a few days
    Agatha Macbeth: Hope he's alright
    Wol Euler nods.
    Wol Euler: at least Berti is here
    Agatha Macbeth: Bless him
    Agatha Macbeth: Such a dear
    Qt Core: his message is fun: silent meditation... voice is used ;-)
    Wol Euler: mmhmm
    Wol Euler: heheheh
    Wol Euler: well, yes
    Agatha Macbeth nods
    Wol Euler: as opposed to *written* silence
    Agatha Macbeth: It's a noisy silent meditation
    Qt Core: that means he speak and the other should be able to listen or that everyone needs a mic ? (sorry never been there)
    Agatha Macbeth: The trick is not to fall asleep
    Wol Euler: yes, he speaks
    Agatha Macbeth: Yes only Bert speaks
    Wol Euler: gives an introduction
    Qt Core: ok
    Agatha Macbeth: Then bashes his donger
    Agatha Macbeth: Or whatever it's called in Tibetan
    Wol Euler raises an eyebrow.
    Agatha Macbeth: Bell dear
    Agatha Macbeth: Or is it a bowl?
    Agatha Macbeth: I'm not much on buddhist technology
    --BELL--1345
    Wol Euler: bowl, I think
    Agatha Macbeth: Ah
    Wol Euler: though in point of fact a bell is just a hanging bowl ...
    Agatha Macbeth: With a donger
    Wol Euler: right
    Wol Euler: an attached donger ... usually
    Agatha Macbeth: Don't think an unattached one would be much use
    Wol Euler: sure, you pick it up and hold it
    Wol Euler: called a "mallet" usually in that case
    Agatha Macbeth: Oh one of those
    Wol Euler: yup
    Agatha Macbeth: I bet no two make exactly the same noise
    Wol Euler nods.
    Agatha Macbeth: I love listening to church bells
    Wol Euler smiles.
    Wol Euler: I miss the sound of the Changes on a Sunday afternoon
    Wol Euler: the Germans don't do that, at least not here
    Agatha Macbeth: Does Stutt have a cathederal?
    Wol Euler: not as such, no
    Agatha Macbeth: Hm
    Wol Euler: which is surprising now that you mention it
    Agatha Macbeth: Yeh
    Agatha Macbeth: I thought so too
    Wol Euler: there isn't even one in a nearby town, as far as I know
    Wol Euler: how odd
    Qt Core: strange, no bishop there ?
    Agatha Macbeth: That's the latest trivia question: 'Which is the nearest cathederal to Stuttgart?'
    Wol Euler: presumably not.
    Agatha Macbeth: What's the main religion around there? Lutheran?
    Qt Core: wikipedia says that there is one: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stuttgart_Cathedral
    Agatha Macbeth: Oh
    Wol Euler: the city itself is Protestant, in a Catholic region
    Agatha Macbeth: Oh my
    Wol Euler: well I never knew that
    Wol Euler: I never bothered to ask what Domkirche meant.
    Wol Euler: given that Dom means Cathedral, it is in retrospect rahter obviuos
    Agatha Macbeth: Looks pretty modern
    Agatha Macbeth: So looking for a dom in Germany has different connotations to here then
    Wol Euler: okay, just a moment, the Cathedral is in Rottenburg, htis is the Bishop#s representative in the city. not quite a cathedral in my pedantic opinion
    Wol Euler: rebuilt, aggers, the city was fought over house-by-house in 1944
    Wol Euler: or 45
    Agatha Macbeth: Replaced an older one?
    Wol Euler: ruins of.
    Agatha Macbeth: Like Coventry
    Wol Euler: though it is much older in spirit than the photo suggests
    Wol Euler: 3 minutes to Berti
    Agatha Macbeth: Shall we?
    Wol Euler: let's do
    Wol Euler: goodnight, qt, enjoy the week
    Agatha Macbeth: Ciao QT, stay fit
    Qt Core: :-) bye
