Hi Hannes,
I seem to remember the photos of last year, but I have also forgotten if this makes any sense to you. The macros that you took of the recent ones looks lovely and Mother nature is a great artist 😊
It's all about respect for the self and for all others regardless my friend. On the farm I worked well with everyone and in the past, I had many staff numbers to manage, but we always reached great heights together. So, this new government can do great work if everyone put their differences aside, and only concentrate on serving the people. Let's see how it goes 🙏
ACs will regulate the temps in the offices during summer and winter, and it will be a great boost for the staff to see that the bosses care for them. At the moment I think that the rules suck, and you guys can definitely do something about it to make things better. If you put a live frog in a pot and gradually increase the heat, then the frog will not know that it's been cooked 😜
Shame Hannes, now you blame your poor wife for her love of sleeping, and I detect a sense of jealousy here, as I know a guy that that is addicted to sleep, even paid sleep. I am not pointing fingers here, but not so long now, then you could join your wife in sleeping all day. You guys can even work shifts to feed the cats 😉😲🤣😁🥴
I said in the previous reply that the day is a bit wet, but occasionally a dry stint arrives, and then I am out to get some food for my camera, Like that Rock Kestrel bird photo in the previous reply. I also got it bathing after its breakfast and will do a post soon 😀
So it's a wet and dry day, and I hope that your day is also good my friend 😊
Cheers and thanks.
Hi Zac,
... and I don't even know if I have posted these photos 😆 but I agree, Mother Nature ist a great artist 😀
Right, you don't need to love each other, but respect the others, especially the ones who are close to you.
That frog thing sounds interesting - maybe our government ist doing just this thing: the younger ones can stand the heat, but the older ones not. Maybe this way the government hopes to save money because they don't have to pay us when we old ones don't live till our retirement 😁 !LOLZ
Maybe you're right, but I can only tell you that more and more often I think of sleeping longer in the mornings, even when I'm not getting paid for sleeping 😂
Our days are hot and dry, but this afternoon they say we'll get thunderstorms ... we'll see. I'm on my way to the other office for another nightshift and hope that the AC isn't broken 😅
Have a more dry and warm day, my friend 😊🌞
Sending !PIZZA and !LUV as always 😉

Hi Hannes,
Happy to see that you don't remember, as it tells me that you are also getting old. When you reach my age, you will also start to forget your name 🤪
Nope, I won't send you the verse, but it states, "LOVE ALL OTHERS AS YOU LOVE YOURSELF". So respect is the cousin of love, and we are instructed to even pray for our enemies.
The frog thing is that they slowly start to boil you without you even knowing it, until you are cooked. So you have it absolutely right, as when the oldies kick the bucket before they retire, then they save a lot of money. You better take care not to croak before you retire methinks. I like how the word "croak" fits into the boiling frog theme 🥴 !LOLZ
Now you really start to sound like my wife, as she has to attend the early morning devotions, and every time that I get to sleep a bit longer, she complains that she would also like to sleep longer. So, like I said before, you get closer to your retirement every day now, and afterwards you can sleep for the whole day. Remember that lady called patience? 🤣
The new cold front arrives tomorrow and at 5pm the sky was dark over here. So we will not see the sun again for a while. I hope the thunderstorms will break the heat. And please check that the AC works tonight, as we don't want you to boil during your paid sleep 😁
I hope that your day will be cooler tomorrow my friend 🙏
Cheers and thanks.
Hi Zac,
I haven't forgotten my name yet, but it's often hard do remember names of people I have known for a long time, but who I don't see often 💭
So, if I hate myself, which I often do, it's not wrong to hate other people? 😂 !LOLZ
Believe me, I rather get less paid when I retire, because I prefer to have less money and be mentally and physically reasonably healthy to be an old grumpy man with money ... I will not get boiled 😂 !LOLZ
Bad storms were all around yesterday, but here it was just a little storm with a bit rain - we were lucky again while only 100 km away the cars of people were swimming.
The AC is too loud, so we turn it off during the night. Because it was running on 16C all day long, the night wasn't too hot.
Yesterday was really busy, but I hope today will be easy, because I want to get home a bit earlier today. It's weekend and I want to take some proper photos again, maybe make a little hike too.
Wishing you a wonderful Friday and great start into the weekend, my friend 😊🌞

Hi Hannes,
I exaggerated a wee bit, as I can still remember my name every now and then, but like you, I am also useless remembering the names of everyone else. Embarrassing when they suddenly appear, and I don't remember their names. Thankfully my wife reminds after a while 😉
You don't have to worry, as I bet that everyone else that know you love you, and that should be good enough, so please don't lose no sleep worrying about it 😁 !LOLZ
See, I just posted the reply by clicking the wrong thing, and now I have to continue the reply in "Edit".
Never easy in this life, and you have the right idea about saving money for your retirement years. So many don't do this, (me included), but I don't worry about it, as I plan to work until my dying day. So one day when you are very old with a lot of money, then you will be able to afford a Ferrari wheelchair, and all of the very old ladies will be after you 🤪 !LOLZ
Glad that there are no floods in your area, and I have now done a few posts about the flooding here. It is in the upper parts of the river, as the river rehab contractor has not done that section of the river yet. They reckon that it will be 2 to 3 years before the river rehabilitation project is completed. So in the meantime, I continue to take photos of the birds and the dogs in the flooded areas 😊
By now your day is almost over, and great that you have plans for the weekend my friend. I really hope that you will get some good photos 🙏
We spent a wet morning to fetch an aunt that was released from hospital, rained wet when we took her into her home from the car, and got back here 2.30pm. Still wet here now, and they reckon that the weekend will be cold and wet. But I am not complaining, as I will still find time for taking photos 😊
Cheers and thanks.
Good morning Zac,
I'm back at work after a hot and mostly lazy weekend. I've had to work a bit on my homepage because it didn't work anymore, and yesterday morning I've been at a waterfall in Slovenia. The other 40 hours of the weekend I've mostly been doing nothing but sweating 😅
There was a colleague in my office last Friday and I had to edit his access rights to the main office. I have known this guy for quite some years, but I couldn't remember his name ... I didn't want to ask him, so I was talking to him about this and that and after a while I remembered his name 😆
The older I get the grumpier I become, I believe. I've always been the friendliest person at work, but a couple of years I started using the word "no" - not everyone loves me since I'm using this word more and more often 😇 !LOLZ
Hihi, as long as the old ladies don't have Ferrari wheelchairs too, I still will have a chance to escape 😂
There seems to be a light at the end of the tunnel, so that the floodings will come to an end some time in the next years 🙏 our floods are bad for the people, but they mean nothing compared to yours.
I hope your weekend wasn't too wet and cold, my friend, I wished I could send you some of our heat.
Wishing you a good start into the new week 😊🌞

Good evening Hannes,
At first, I always look at your photos, and as usual they are all fantastic. Difficult to pick one for me, and if I must, then it will be the last one. Marian of course likes the first one with the flowers. Well done 😲
Working on your home page? On Hive, or somewhere else? So sad that it is so hot there, but you know that a lot of sweating could help with weight loss 😜
Embarrassing to forget someone's name, and yeah getting older is not for sissies. How many years are you away from retirement now? Oh, and please, don't forget the name of your boss, as I don't think that he will like it very much 😁 !LOLZ
You grumpy? I don't believe it, as you have a very caring heart, and you will never hurt anyone deliberately. I think that I know you by now my good friend 😊
Hahaha, just the thought of a tribe of old ladies chasing you around on Ferrari wheelchairs tickles my funny bone 😁 !LOLZ
Yeah, we really hope so, and there are already noises for the new government to release higher up state land for the people. The problem is that before they resettle the people, they will have to establish infrastructure and services on the land. It is a very expensive issue, but it has now come to be a priority, and we will keep on watching to see progress 🙏
And I wish that I could send you some of our cold my friend. It attacks all of the old bones in my body, and I limp around on the gammy leg like a disabled person. So yes, it was both wet and a bit of dry the weekend, and usual in the dry periods I was out taking photos.
Look who called me outside.
I hope that you had a good start to the week, and that things will start to cool down a bit.
Cheers and thanks.
Good morning Zac,
my first break today, so I have some time to do the more important things, which is to quickly write replies to you 😅 !LOLZ
The photo with the flowers is also my favourite 😊 I wanted to have all sharp in focus - the flowers and also the waterfall, but it didn't work as I've hoped, and so I left the waterfall unsharp. Thanks a million kindly as always 🙏
I've been working a bit on my private homepage piber.cc which I want to keep a bit more updated than before. Maybe if I write a blog article, I could post it also on the Hive ... maybe, but I'm not sure what I'll do in future.
We've had some rain yesterday and today is also very cloudy. It has cooled down a bit, but it's still very warm.
From May to the end of August 2027 I want to use my vacation time, and September 2027 will be my first month as a free man 😁
I think when my wife sees the old ladies surrounding me, she'll come and chase them away, because she wants to be the only one who is allowed to surround (and scare) me 😂 !LOLZ
I think long term it will be cheaper to invest in new and safe infrastructure for the people than to spend money for rescue and repairs and ... after each flood.
If such a beautiful bird would sit and wait for me outside, I'd certainly get up and out, but unfortunately here there are only sparrows and pigeons 😉
Especially in the mornings my feet feel like they were several hundred years old and I walk just like I really was that old. So I hope your weather is getting better that walking will be easier for you.
Wishing you an awesome Wednesday, my friend 😊🌞

BEER.PS: It's all too much at the moment - work and private life, but especially work is too much and photography doesn't work very well. So I think I'm going offline for a while. Of course, I'll have a look on the Hive from time to time, but I'm not sure if I'll return.
Cheers and !BEER
Oh no! Don't tell me that you will also go the Janton way, as I would hate to lose a friend like you.
So maybe just start to take things easy and continue to pop in every now and then when you have a bit of time. Know that we pray for you and the family.
Blessings.
I've always been busy at work, but it seems that someone or something wants to challenge me in my last 3 years 😅 In my free time I'm mostly too tired to sit at the computer, and at work there's not much spare time at the moment either.
I'm not sure about the Hive either, so I have decided to leave it at least for a while. Maybe I'll power down too, but I'm not sure.
Thanks, my friend, your friendship is the only thing why I'm still here anyway, otherwise I would have been long gone, I believe.
