Alice has a job

This afternoon at about a quarter past 4, Alice rang me and she was screaming through the phone: "I have a job". They had just rang her and offered Alice a full time job. She can probably start at the end of October. They have still to do some checks.

Last Sunday I went to Linda's party, to celebrate Lennart's promotion and Linda and Koen's birthday. Had made gado-gado(indonesian salad) with satay(peanutpastesauce) and kroepoek(prawn crackers). Those were a success with the young ones. They were gone in no time.
Alice came later, at about 7 we went home and had a good time.
Dropped Alice off in the city and myself went home.

Monday I had an appointment with someone from Taxhelp. You get help, to fill in your tax form. This has to be done before the 30th of October. The tax year is here from the first of July to the 30th of June.

Tuesday had to go the the doctor and got a new appointment on the 8th of November.
Today I went with Frances to Adams, a delicatessen shop and bought dutch licorice(double salted), pumpernickel and some bratwurst. Had some of the bratwurst for lunch and dinner.

The mower is still not going. It looks like it is jinxed the machine. I brought it in on Tuesday. The mechanic had a look at it and the machine started and was going. Got it home and it started but does not keep going.
Even today I was trying to get it started.
