Month: May 2022
This is a new model. I’ve got about a dozen of the old regular version around the house….they are well worth the 35 euros…
Aaand this is a heavy gauge wire I’ll attach to my battery..
..on BMW that will provide me with an external contact charging point…excellent.
Last bit to finish balcony project.
Waterproof heavy duty power block for the grill and electronics.
I’m cleaning up and super tidying my server and router and Raspberry Pi “area”. Fancy wiring and a 12 outlet datacenter grade power strip.
Every few years I get ants. Not many…but, as much as I love the little bastards I don’t want them snooping around and judging me.
YO YO, the neighbourhood pools are opening.
Sunday afternoon back medication. Still hurts like a motherfucker….
I think she missed me. I have a stupid Birdie story to share….but that’s tomorrow.
I don’t know how…but I made it home.
A quick pint at Bob’s…2 pints actually.
So the bus ran out of gas and we had to coast to Nova Zagora to get more.
But the worst thing so far is the driver is really bad. Not only did we get stuck in Plovdiv down some random streets he hit a bump at high speed and everyone went flying. Really bad situation as there are a lot of old people here, you would not imagine…really..this was bad. I hit my head on the roof …my neck and back hurt…fucking sucks..fuck. Lots of people hurting on the bus, a weirdly bizarre and terrible situation…..
Awww Stars Zagora.

Plovdiv bus station.
Sooooo, even the Sunny Beach bus is late. 1st time ever.
But my Soviet era hotel was actually extremely comfortable. The bed was perfect and the shower super hot and showery. I have zero qualms.
I just fucking can’t catch a break today…
Missed the bus. Zero hotels….except this one which is still 40 Euros and probably has larvae.
Every plane was late, every connection screwed up, arrived an hour late…watched the bus leave….plus had to take a metro transfer (but that was fast). If I had an extra 15 minutes everything would have worked out ..
Train station is closed…yes, completely closed so no sleeper to Burgas.
Early am bus to Sunny already booked so I can’t leave till 11am…a day completely lost.
If I make it to train or bus station….it will be within exactly 4 minutes…..whole day pivots at 4 minutes…everything is late.
Nobody sitting next to me…I feel like I’m in a spa.
Airport Simit cart….that takes credit cards…cool.
Last leg of trip. RO to BG. Late, of course….45 minute flight.
If I can catch the sleeper train or even bus I would be extatic…..delays everywhere and I bet I’ll miss everything by less than 15 minutes.
Or I’ll be lucky.
A Starbucks knock-off here at the airport…and absolutely perfect.
I have arrived in Romania, or as they say around here “200 years in the past”. Soo fucking dirty here and smelly.
The clash of cultures between here and the modern word remains staggeringly wide.
Leaving one hour late…
Great, now it’s raining and the plane will rust through.
Stories today, moments tomorrow….deep, profound, complex…
1st time flying Blue Air.
Garbage Bulgaria style – a sweet taste of home.
Cattle-ing at the airport. 2 hours of this.
Update…it was only about 1 hour and 15 minutes…so, not tooooo bad.
