This rug is one of the few things that I have from my early childhood. I am not sure why/how I still have it, and I am not 100% sure that I would have chosen to keep it. However, the fact that it has been with me for most of my life gives it huge significance and I am very glad that it is on my bedroom floor today.

(When I took this picture, it came out very dark. I adjusted the brightness and lo and behold - my toes were in the shot!)

"Mord mit Aussicht" started again tonight - it's one of our favourites. In fact we reckon it's one of the best shows on German TV. Tuesday nights will be bearable once more!
