re-settled in Hungary from Rochdale, Lancs, England, and into a little village, doing a bit of greenish farming hoping for a quiet life... but stuff just happens...

lazy autumn blog


so, what can I do, time flies - not that any of you'd been missing the blog... there were a few weeks of quiet farm-life with tons more processing of produce - one has to do something with it... pickled paprikas and cabbages, grape juice, etc - while rabbits are growing, lambs ditto, freezers full - we have to decide what to do, as we plan quite a lot of time away this winter. Alan started a free course on the internet about psychiatry or something - he should tell you about it. If I were a bit more diligent, I'd tell you all about the fairly diverse reading matter we are going through lately. Like my present one My isl@m by Amir Nasr amongst other fairly informative stuff, making me feel guilty about not using this "blogosphere" in a more productive way. anyways, we had a mini-break, went to Lake Balaton, where we haven't been for yonks, with the excuse of attending my aunt Edith's (in her 91st year) exhibition (graphics) in a gallery of a pretty little village in Lovas, North side of the lake. Unfortunately, we had to come home a bit earlier, as Erzsi is not feeling well, they had the emergency doctor out who thinks is angina, but the silly woman wouldn't go into the hospital "they don't do anything over the weekend" the mind boggles. Also it seems the building worker brigade left us in a hurry - suspicious circumstance maybe, I thought they suddenly decided to go home to Mezőtúr, their place of origin in the Alföld (allegedly) as they left their van and loads of materials and their weight-lifting aids, and tons of cloths - and rubbish and filth - and thought they would return when the rain stopped - but alas, not jet since last Wednesday. I have no idea how long to wait and what to do. Oh, they do owe for two weeks' rent... I wouldn't mind that much if they haven't promised that they'd clean up - they did keep it ok until the last few weeks. The photos show a nice walk to our local fishing lake a week or so ago on a wonderful afternoon without rain - rare lately. A few about the village -same time. Then the Balaton trip - first day we stayed in a lake-side hotel in Balatonalmádi, next day in one in Alsóőrs, near the little harbour and it's pretty park. Sorry about unsorted and tons of them - I realized the volume is not limited anymore, makes one lazy. Hope you like some of them.
