Just had word that Dir En Grey will be coming to Europe this October ... but they won't be going to the Benelux. Leaving Cologne (19 Oct) and Paris
(16 Oct) as only options. I'm looking all over forums for people I know who live near there and could give me a lift or a place to stay or something.

I'll gladly offer you a place where you can sleep, but I don't think I can take you to Paris.

There are decent connections between Eindhoven and Paris, Amiens is still quite a way away from Paris though, it wouldn't be practical...
Travelling to Cologne by bus is about half the price of travelling to Paris by bus.

My 1971 friend lived in my neighbourhood and we went to the same high school. We were both immigrants from the UK as were many in our town (it was
built for that purpose in the first place). When we were 15 his parents decided to go back to the UK. Voilą!

So I guess Cologne is
the way to go, then.

Ok.And did you reconnect, or was he like a totally different person when you met him again?

We got on like a house on fire. We spent time together again in 2014 and 2016 and I will meet up with him again next time I'm in the UK.

Yeah, I have mixed feelings about Facebook, but I wouldn't have found him otherwise.

Yeah, I'm not fond of Facebook, but it can be useful, sometimes.

Had a full day's work, starting at 12:30 and wrapping up at 21:00... Day started out with me rushing to get towels to clean my table and desperately
try to dry off my papers. My drinking glass was leaking.
The building closes at 21:30, but as it turned out the bicycle basement closes early. I couldn't get my bicycle out and had to walk home. 
Which is of course when it starts to rain.

Sorry about your day, Bonny, sometimes you've got to hang in there and wait until it passes.
I might change job again. I was proposed to work for another company. I've got to check how much they pay, what the conditions really are, etc. The
situation I'm in right now is pretty crappy, i.e.the work is good but the management is really bad, so depending on how much the other company pays, I
may ask my boss for a substantial rise. If they don't accept, bye bye then...
