We tried that route via Muiden. Worse pavement, better wind. [104.6]

Pothole on the last stretch into Harderwijk could swallow a bakfiets. Reported. Again.

I am quoting this later. Too clean a summary to lose. [40.6]

Come to Leiden tomorrow, we can debug it on a bench. [118.6]

Update 97: I miss when “the cloud” meant someone else’s computer and not twelve product names for the same invoice.

Neighbourhood tip: skip the main square at Pampus on Saturday. Side streets are calmer and the bakery still has bread.
