Hello lovely girls, Here am I on Friday! Have you all had a good week?
I got a nice postcard this week. It comes from the Netherlands as you might have guessed:
It just brings back memories from my childhood. It was sent to me by Chantal who lives in the province of Utrecht. (i.e. not in Holland).
The stamp is a normal Dutch stamp with a lighthouse.
Let me tell you what I have been up to. On Monday morning I took my car to the body shop to have some scratches repaired and repainted. So on Tuesday, when I go to Pilates in town, I had to go by bus. This was the first time I had used a local bus and I enquired what time it went. It appeared there was only one bus into town at 8:30 and another one back at 11:45. That suited me fine. I even got a discount because I am a pensioner.
I had purposely not had breakfast so I went to a well known coffee shop for my breakfast:
It is called Café Colombia and I had tomato and avocado on toast and a cappuccino and freshly squeezed orange juice.
I went to Pilates and then had some time to do some shopping. I bought a lovely Regatta rain jacket which I can use on my holiday in May.
When I was waiting for the bus back home, I saw this mural:
It certainly is Picasso inspired.
I've recently had a birthday and my friends gave me a jigsaw puzzle for my birthday. Well, I could not wait to start it and I did the outside border bit in one sitting and then this morning I sat out on the patio (in the sun) and got as far as this. Of course you don't know what it is supposed to be.... I'll tell you next time.
I will find you some funnies to smile about at the end.
Wishing you all a lovely weekend,
Lisca

Settling up my new laptop. Will be back later tonight.
I had to look up what makes Holland and the Netherlands different. I didn't know, but now I do. So thanks for mentioning that Utrecht is not Holland. I'm interested to see what your puzzle looks like, and maybe you'll have more finished for T day. have a super weekend. hugs-Erika
You shared some fun funnies-enjoy your puzzle I do puzzles online at jigsaw planet-keeps my mind going I think. Sounds like a nice day out and about hugs Kathy
Beautiful stamp! I always mix up those two countries... Like Kathy I do puzzles online - no space here - looking forward to see yours - does Ronnie not interfere? Good funnies - have a lovely weekend.
As promised, I'm back. That's a sweet postcard and I LOVE the postage stamp.
A regatta rain jacket. Must look that up to see the style. Now I want to know where you are going in May. What a surreal mural. Very Picasso inspired indeed.
That is one very unusual puzzle. I wonder how long it will take you to finish it.
Enjoyed the funnies. My favorite was the cat threatening to pull the plug. That could be Squiggles when he wants his meal. Have a super rest of Friday and a great weekend, Lisca.
Breakfast at a coffee shop sounds like fun. I don’t have the energy to get up and go to one.
Your jaunt out sounds positive and your public transport reliable which is always good.
A new jacket sounds good for a holiday and I'm looking forward to seeing the finished jigsaw.
Have a great week.
Hi Lisca, love the new stamp. We don't dp it too often but breakfast out is a real treat. Great mural and good luck with the jigsaw. Thanks for the funnies too, I need a smile as stuff keeps breaking down. If something breaks or stops working other things seem to join in. They have said they can fix my laptop so fingers crossed. Have a great weekend. Hugs Angela xXx
