black and white and dirty green


the small things are annoying. The 'phone that should have charged overnight did not, so that now it is almost dead. gather the clothes, the pass card needed for the day, dress, Brush the hair and leave the house.
The alley is cold, there are still a few heaps of iced snow left. A taxi comes speeding up the alley, step onto the pavement. At the church, a driver in a very small car is taking illegal short cut around the church, driving fast in the pedestrian zone. He stops and slowly drives fast.

Down theater street, there is a young woman walking fast, hair all done up in a knot on top. There is a lot of traffic today, there is no obvious reason for this.
At the bus stop, there is nobody. The bus stop is deserted, took over to the small house containing the weather station, there are two men. One is standing there watching the other feed the ducks from a plastic bag.
The bus ariwes, the teacher man too. Let the man board the bus first, then pay the driver his fare.

The railway forecourt is bare of people too, the cold weather has reduced the amount of bicycles standing about. Not so many people are using their bicycles.

 In the CafĂ© the uniforms of the service people appear to have been charged. They are wearing yellow T-shirts now, with a Y for Yormas written on them. Pay for the coffee with the fully stamped diccountcard.



Sit down in the waiting room, and greet Norbert Hedgehog. A friendly man.
The train is on time, and it is bright outside by the line the train gets to Moosburg. The sky is an even cloudy pale grey, and the landscape is pure black and white and dirty green with the snow and the winter grass.
