first dawn birds
i'm hearing a few birds singing pre-dawn. first time this year. it's as if maybe spring is coming.
egyptians succeeded in getting rid of mubarak, now they have a military govt for the moment.
the gemeente wants to close the 'cotton club' bar in nieuwmarkt which has been there for 70 years, handed down thru the family. the latest owner marion, who took over in 2002, was half sister to a guy who turns out to be a big criminal, and he loaned her eur 100K to cover expenses. so now the gemeente thinks the business looks dirty. 'wet bibob' strikes again.
