The Bumpkins Come to Town
Aug 29
As previously posted, we invaded Baden this evening.
Two, then three of us.
Practically 33% of the total amount of Brightys living in Switzerland were united in a single place with a single goal: Fish!!
But: that’s another story….
The whole event wouldn’t have been a post worth if it hadn’t been for the last 5 minutes…
Picture this:
- yours truly, our eldest and DBW standing in front of the parking ticket machine
- said machine requires exactly CHF 1.50 in exchange for our release
- I managed to scrape up CHF 1.30 from the depths of my wallet
- knowing that DBW stole all my remaining change in order to finance Sarah’s next lunch I turn to her with a “knowing” smile
- DBW shrugs her shoulders and explains that she NEVER carries her wallet around when I’m around (figures: no driving license, private chauffeur, who happens to own a couple of credit cards.. what a Life….) Anyway..
- We turn to Sarah who, as usual, is broke.
- CHF 0,20
- Basically nothing.
- If you’ve got it.
- At that precise moment, Sarah delivers us from our impending misery with a
“Oh: I might just happen to have some change at the bottom of my bag”
- And proceeds to empty said bag’s contents onto the floor and digs out, YES, a CHF 0,20 coin!!!!!!!!
Bless her! I love my kids. I REALLY do!
Note to self: reduce ROI expectations on Sarah by CHF 0,40.

You are right, what a Life!! I am living for the past 20!!! years with someone, that unisono also confirmed by third parties (see following post from Harry) is,

a Tyrant and stressy
and b)
