Friday 19 April – the following VHS course has started and runs till 14 June (with the exception of 10 May). It is still available for registration : “Englisch B1 plus – Learn to play Bridge in English”. Course number Pa4101F.
Latest developments:
The VHS is closed on 10 May. I have previously indicated that we can play at my place on that evening, but that is no longer the case. Even if I do test negative by then, I am unlikely to want to spend time indoors with other people, for any purpose, any time soon, if ever, if that is what it takes to avoid getting sick like this again.
Instead of staying home, trying to make peace with the world, I went out early to inspect the damages after the Labour Day “celebrations”.
As it turned out, I was almost too late, as people were already in full swing cleaning up at around 06.30 in the morning, and most of the garbage had been either swept together in more or less neat piles to be collected, or already removed.
It is amazing how people seem to think that that is good use of taxpayers’ money.
We humans arethe worst thing that ever h appened to this planet.
That said, not all the of the below photos are acidy commentaries :-), just things I stumbled upon that caught my eye.
Two gallery walks with InterNations: Friday 26 April, and Sunday 28 April.
On 26 April, we ended up visiting about 14 galleries on the route.
On 28 April we probably reached the same number of galleries. The route was shorter, but there were several new gallereries there that I had not been aware of.

Yes, really, this all-day event took place in the middle of Gallery Weekend. It did not even occur to me to check before I signed up. Just like one of the previous all-day VHS photography courses I signed up for turned out to take place during the Berlinale. I seem to be the only one who finds that sort of thing really strange.
Anyway, it was an enjoyable day out with about 12 people from Volkshochschule, and fun running into four people from BLENDE2-HAMBURG with whom I had recently been in a zoom session, and will be again soon.
Link to the “Lost Place” here.
I don’t particularly like very many of the photos I took, but the following give an impression of what the place looks like.
In cases where I am not sure whether black & white or colour, I have done both and juxtaposed them.
Heat oil and butter till the butter melts.
Add all the onions, except the spring onions, and salt, simmer, stirring occasionally till they start to soften and turn light brown at the edges, about 12 minutes.
Reduce heat to medium-low. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are caramelized, about 35 minutes.
Add the spring onions towards the end of the cooking time.
If it starts to stick to the bottom or become too brown, add a bit of water.
Transfer mixture to a large bowl and let cool before stirring in the cream cheese until it is incorporated.
Add the rest of the ingredients, season with salt and pepper, chill. Can be made a day ahead.
