Last night we went out to a giant party in a tent in a field. It was really really strange for me - it's like a big festival and literally the whole town was there - from 16 to 60 year olds all on a big night out. The band was great and we ran into lots of Tom's old friends who were really nice. The guy in the picture is Nino (Mona's boyfriend) who looks scarily like Tom. Especially when they swap clothes just to mess with me and Mona. The dancing was amazing...they all properly ballroom dance and it was so cool to watch.Today is Fathers' day in Germany so we're having a big barbecue tonight. Tom and Mona and I made a pavlova (without a magic egg - eep!) that actually tasted alright :) This afternoon we went into the town on bikes and had some ice cream...they make spaghetti out of ice cream and the 'sauce' is strawberry....looks awesome and tastes as good. And then on the way back on our bikes we went past a park with a big pond and...you guessed it :D It was full of duckie families...males, females, and little ducklings in tow...it was so so adorable! Will go back tomorrow pronto with some bread to feed them and a camera.
We're off to Hannover tomorrow to get Tom and Nino haircuts (about bloody time) and then to Hamburg on the weekend to visit Ellen :) So we're basically very busy having lots of fun.
And finally, for those family members of a certain lazy boy, here is his current update (to let you know he's still kickin'):
'Barbecues are my favourite smell...it's like a combination of food and burning shit' - Thomas Bennett, 1/5/08
He's currently asleep on Mona's couch.
Much love as always,

Ennyways, transfered $500 across to your streamline e-access account, let me know whien it scome thru and when you need the next installment.
All is well here, picked the olives over the weekend and this crop is the best tasting yet. Sensational buttery, green and fresh flavours.
But we are all now tired and a bit over it. We got about 150 litres which is by no way a huge amount so we won't need to market it!
Love to all especially Petra.
