Stop Phubbing.

Ah the sunny weather is here – why even if I had work – I wouldn’t like to be doing it!!! 🙂

I like the simple things in life – like fixing a puncture in my bicycle tyre, going for a bike ride in the Taunus (not on the roads), laying on a park bench up there and dozing whilst gazing at the clouds – we should all do more of that I think.

I was having a rest – and I thought – “Do I really have to rush off on my bike to do even more kilometers? NO, I thought – just lay here on your back and relax and watch the world go by”.

So I did.

I believe I found the profession for which I was born …. :-))

I was walking, admittedly with purpose, up a hill in Kronberg on Sunday morning – around 10:00 in the morning.
I was wearing my walking boots, good, solid leather things – and I admit that they make firm contact noises on the ground.

I noticed a woman turning around to look at me – she was on the oppposite side of the road and also heading in the same direction.
On the second or third glance of hers I greeted her, in my best German ” Guten Morgen”.
Imagine my suprise when she responded “Was für einen Krach Sie machen”
I was somewhat surprised but responsded “Ich bin Flach Fussig” or I think it was something to that purpose.

So now I know – it is posssible to walk too loudly in Germany.
Can anyone can tell me what the Strassen Recht Verordnung is that I in my studpidity have broken?

Best
