Luxembourg surprise

No GBG, but L army, alltime Premiere


A weekend of horror in Monaco. First, my favorite Citroen Ami rolled over. On the night between Saturday and Sunday, three young men ended up in the tunnel.

I am ashamed of our government and president

Every other day with them is a national disaster.

Malta and more

 

I am ashamed to be the servant of Joe Biden, Ursula von der Leyen, Frans Timmermans…

1C, sharp gale, flying snow.

He wouldn’t chase the dog away, they say in our country. But people came. And there were a lot of them. 100 thousand.

Even from Poland!  “Nie idzmy na te wojne”(No, let’s go to war).                                              “To nie Nasza Wojna” (Its not our War).

 

After two hours I leave for the heat. I then watch what the media are writing while having coffee. Some have live subtitles. And I read. After the end of the demonstration, an attempt was made to remove the UA flag from the sacred building of the National Museum. Quickly to the bus and back.

The fight is over. Injury on both sides. 18 people arrested. A photographer of a well-known CZ media reports to the newsroom via mobile phone: “Police brutality, they pushed us down the stairs, many injured.”


Woche 48 (-1). Vielleicht nur AL könnte noch kommen, sonst alles was möglich ist ,war dabei. Ein Fisch from So. Abend kommt noch bald.

Czechia against poverty


We sent 40 billion CZK worth of weapons to the UA. We live here with half a million UA who don’t like it at home. We’re at the end. The government reduced pensions. The states deficit is astronomical.
Unfortunately, we can do it ourselves. This is how people chose.

Mongolia- new King of the Road

Mongolia MGL, alltime Premiere truck

 

Trailer CZ export. He bought a stainless steel shovel in RUS. As you can see it has already to rust. I just don’t know if there is snow on RUS or sand on MNG. Probably for both.

Half still on the Cote d Azur

but TER Sud keeps sending new and new warnings that trains are not running – there is no other option.

Tuesday 41, Thursday 39 states. Otherwise, most of the time I try to understand the thought processes of my fellow citizens. I haven’t come up with anything yet.
Here in our green and wooded district there are also 3 ponds. As you can see, it is slowly filling up with people. It is before noon and the temperature has risen above freezing.


Woche 49 (+4). Sonst schrecklich kalt.

The absolute opposite of Monaco…

Slovakia SK, new Premiere

…is CZ. Endless shades of gray, misery, expensiveness, war for humn, feeding parasites, stupid people who chose this for themselves.

They split up the Kazakh convoy

This came together – the PL driver apparently didn’t want to pull a RUS trailer – so PL-KZ and KZ-RUS.

Also AM this year. Over the years, FIN has acquired the color of an island in the Pacific Ocean.

The first expedition around the world in PRG 2023- RUS,Tatarstan.

That’s a throwback! Mexico (act.)

Above on Brennero: KZ or UZ. The only thing I know, in the lower right corner of the 10.

Yes Uzbekistan UZ (see you comment).


The “Iron Curtain” has moved. Welcome to West Germany.

I recommend reading the article. CH perfect as always!


In fact, the only thing I was looking forward to in CZ was driving again. And the Sunday drive paid off.

Mexico MEX, Distrito Federal, 3 years Premiere


Woche 47 Länder (-4).


And there is another remarkable thing. IRL?

Verona

Look what I bought for 6.90 €. How is this possible? I always considered I and F to be equal countries in everything.

The balcony where Giulia Capuletti  were standing . As you can see, visitors can go up to the balcony and take a selfie. (paid admission). Definitely a good idea from Verona City Hall. Where there was an entrance is now an exit. And there stands the security guard and calls everyone Uscita (read Ushita). Even though he knows that 100% of the visitors are not Italian.

Industrial district with shopping center. I thought a better truck could come along. And I also wanted to buy that nice jacket that Italians wear. Neither was available.

Arena Verona. Opened in 30. I haven’t forgotten anything . 30. Nothing happened in CZ for 800 years after that!  They have their Fete du Citron in the summer. The famous opera festival takes place in the Arena.

Today I got about 3 points for cycling Verona.
30 countries. About 1/3 to 1/5 of it trucks. Personal 1.CZ. Good still B, SLO…UA just average. The first city of the Tour where they did not win.

Another short courtesy visit

Bright shops full of goodies, whatever you look at. And the prices!!!

For the first time in the country under a new boss.
So Forza Italia!
I am happy like a true Italian, as Cotugno sings.

Meloni, Salvini, Berlusconi etc. Grazie anche da parte mia.

Despite the circumstances: 2 catches

Malawi does not have a consulate in Paris either.

The epicenter of luxury. Le Metropole.

In addition to KWT and USA, also TR (2023 Premiere)

Les Rafales skimmed the surface

Otherwise, nothing happened all day until…

…in the evening on that low-lighted lower harbor street (Rue dela Piscine) from the dark against the M and behind it the Bugatti. All day in seconds.

38 countries + M and SLO ?


Fête du Citron is approaching in Menton. Starting with the liquidation of parking lots, fully occupied accommodation and the inability to go to my bakery for Croissant chokolade (dark or white) and coffee. If the angry French working people let me go, my stay is coming slowly to an end. Otherwise, I understand their requirements. If they can support 100 000 UA in the country (I think 98% of that number will be at CdA) then they too could have a good life. Of course, the vast majority of F can only dream of the kind of CdA apartments they got. Just like in the Old Town in Prague.

It’s a shame that the beauty- saleswoman is not on the website. As he sees me, he already prepares without asking, he knows what I will want. I will miss a million things. This is one of them.

L´Italiano

The Italian group on Place gave me ideas for an Italian song that they play regularly on Radio Nostalgie. So it’s by Toto Cotugno and it says exactly what I feel but can’t express well.

Toto Cutugno – L’Italiano (1983) – YouTube       (from my Verona)

Lasciatemi cantareCon la chitarra in manoLasciatemi cantareSono un italiano
Buongiorno Italia, gli spaghetti al denteE un partigiano come presidenteCon l’autoradio sempre nella mano destraUn canarino sopra la finestra
Buongiorno Italia con i tuoi artistiCon troppa America sui manifestiCon le canzoni, con amoreCon il cuoreCon più donne e sempre meno suore
Buongiorno Italia, buongiorno MariaCon gli occhi pieni di malinconiaBuongiorno DioLo sai che ci sono anch’io
Lasciatemi cantareCon la chitarra in manoLasciatemi cantareUna canzone piano piano
Lasciatemi cantarePerché ne sono fieroSono un italianoUn italiano vero
Buongiorno Italia che non si spaventaCon la crema da barba alla mentaCon un vestito gessato sul bluE la moviola la domenica in TV
Buongiorno Italia col caffè ristrettoLe calze nuove nel primo cassettoCon la bandiera in tintoriaE una Seicento giù di carrozzeria
Buongiorno Italia, buongiorno MariaCon gli occhi pieni di malinconiaBuongiorno DioLo sai che ci sono anch’io
Lasciatemi cantareCon la chitarra in manoLasciatemi cantareUna canzone piano piano
Lasciatemi cantarePerché ne sono fieroSono un italianoUn italiano vero
Lasciatemi cantareCon la chitarra in manoLasciatemi cantareUna canzone piano piano
Lasciatemi cantarePerché ne sono fieroSono un italianoUn italiano vero

I didn’t even realize how nice it was before covid, the war and the onset of totalitarianism and fanaticism in CZ. So today with a bit of nostalgia.

Fridays are traditionally the weakest

So I spent a significant part of the afternoon on my wild beach.

And then to places where there was no plates or cars spotter yet.

And somehow Malta saved the day.

Rimac, Leclerc, Korea.

Rimac, Premiere

Another event in Monaco. The famous regatta. Deadline is approaching. They brought the first sailboats.


I finally met Charles Leclerc.

All the women and girls immediately ran together. So I didn’t interfere in any way. Just a document.

 

Without the Italians, everything went smoothly and with dignity. No madness. He was already sitting in the car and another girl ran up. So he stepped out once more.


I’m basking on the wall when suddenly:

South Korea ROK, 2 years and new 4 years Premiere.


Time to spend everything.

It was a tough shift

While the WRC arrived in the same condition as it left, historians have not only observed malfunctions, but also crashs.

The Swiss won in a Lancia Fulvia HF. Their watches were the best.

It’s half past eight. The Norwegian rally cars will soon be in Puttgarden.

Tunisia TN regime s. Jean Claude Andruet was the only one who got a seat in front of the Hotel de Paris.

41 states today!

Look at those little Italian kids. That interest. It’s in their genes. I envy the Italians. Clarkson already writes: the greatest happiness that can happen to you is to be born Italian.

Waiting for the rally to return. When suddenly here: Isle of Man GBM (so maybe). At least that way. I don’t prepare a phone for every GB.

I see Volvo ran the 1985 Safari Rallye in Kenya colours. And the owner shows me a photo from that year. With a Kenyan Lp! Maybe he has it somewhere at home..
Cyprus has come back. But with crossed out numbers. He probably spent those 3 days in Valence in the repair shop.
And now comes the Champion!

 

Jean Claude Andreut. He won here in 1973. Of course with this Renault-Alpine A 110. And his co-driver Michelle Petit “Biche”. 82 years old – amazing!!!


The Swede certainly imported it with the Kenya Lp. You should have left that there! Anyway, he only drives it on rallies and no one will blame him there. The new S completely ruins it.

First Lp of the new week: Kuwait

Just 20m behind the maze from the station. Even before UA! But they ruled the whole day to an unprecedented degree.

I see living Langueste for the first time in my life. If someone gave it to me, I would throw it back into the sea.
Today’s bread was broken here. In a crack, while riding a bike, in a thousandth of a second of UZ or so.

Charles Leclerc at Thermen Marins. this is such a wellness complex, including hairdressing, etc., at the highest world level. I’m not going to wait here in the dark. I’ll come on my way to the train in a quarter of an hour. He was gone. it was tight. Okay then. Harass someone in the dark. So let this guy drive in F1, I wish. Make it exciting.

 

This is a photo from the Monaco Grand Prix 2021. In the time of severe covid. The less I talk, the more other senses work. Here I made my way through an incredible maze to the very center of the action.

Leclerc won one of his (perhaps the first) qualifying in his life. Then came a series of misfortunes and he did not start at all in the home GP. So you can see that he to cry a bit.
