What’s Schnell in Welsh ?


I’m isolating at home and isolating from the CBM
I’m a social pariah all told. 
With his lovely tendency of wanting to chat, even though I’m in the next room, I’ve taken myself off for a long walk on Colwyn Bay prom , where I can utilise the WiFi and drink coffee safely alone , my face freshened in the wind. 
And he can finish the tiling 

At the next table there is a group of ten who are having a conversation in German .
It’s sort of learn German by chatting group , but because of the off shore wind everyone seems to be shouting and the whole thing feels like a German war film  which has given me a fit of the giggles 
I’m waiting for “ Raus !!! Schnell !!!”

I missed choir last night. Jamie ( RAF moustache etc) sent us all a link which features the choir on a Welsh  mental health radio programme.
We don’t sound half bad…..and our piece is featured around 8 minutes in 


Schnell in welsh is Cyflym btw

  1. No wonder that lady has an eyepatch - look at those boobs! They'd take anyone's eye out! Will have to look at the link tomorrow when I'm back home, poor wi-fi signal here. Best to let CBM crack on with the tiling, it'll soon be finished. xx

  2. I liked the line "you are not alone. You are part of a whole." You all sounded very nice.

  5. LOL -- is that Jayne Mansfield? I don't get the connection to your post, though I do get the eye patch joke. I'll check out the link when I get home from work.

  7. Beautiful harmonizing from the choir. Soon the bathroom will be completed and you'll have your fully updated and modernized bathroom. A luxury to look forward to.

    Good of you to be considerate of others as you deal with bing +. How are you feeling?
    I, too, was surprised too see Jayne Mansfield after so many years. Wonder who the woman with the eye patch is?
    Lovely singing!

    Hugs!

  10. I came across a woman teaching a man French in a similar cafe setting. She was correcting him. A much sexier language than German (unless you're into S&M I guess). Oh my, those 50s bullet bras, they were quite something weren't they? Must have poked a few enquiring eyes out!

  11. I just learned the virus is running through our office again, but they haven't decided to update the work from home policy because of it. So I am still going in four days a week and staying home one.

  16. A day out, can be wonderful, it is lambing season, find a pasture with lambs to watch for an hour. The joys of spring.

  17. Glad you appear to be over the worst of it. I hear many people just feel tired all of the time. Bathroom nearly completed..I am excited for you..the big reveal is the bit I liked; once it is all put together, pictures up, accessories in door thrown open... TADAA!
