Let's fade to grey. My sweater just looks like the clouds...

This little fella did a hell of a job on Saturday. I've cleaned our terrace, the terracotta tiles and the roof of the car port.

Doesn't he look like some kind of Transformer?

I've started my day at 0500 hours to do 45 minutes of running.
7°C and a little drizzle.

After a busy (house and garden maintenance) weekend with sunny skies, the week starts with grey clouds. 

Just like my sweater.

Hey! A coincidence?

Altweiber - Karneval in Düsseldorf.

Today is the start of the Karneval's season in North Rhine-Westphalia.

At 11:11 hours, the girls go wild, dressed in fancy dresses and take over City Hall.

Düsseldorf Helau! There's no holding back carnival fans in the metropolis on the banks of the Rhine when the fifth season kicks off.
 As every year, I'm not quite a fan of Karneval. 

But wait! Here'y my costume:

TGIF!

Yesterday Frankfurt, today Düsseldorf.

Another business meeting yesterday. I went to Frankfurt by car which took about 2.5 hours.

Here are a two impressions of our German Gotham:

Today I'm back on my desk, dressed in my well-known Winter armour: Shetland sweater, but chinos instead of corduroy and my new Clarks boots.

It looks like this:

Spruce L.L.Bean Shetland sweater.

Navy chinos by Dockers.

Wool-lined boots by Clarks.

Heavy broguing.

Today's get-up with new boots.

Here are my new Clarks boots: Montacute Lord with a wool lining. Nice and warm.

Nice antique finish on the toe box

New boots by Clarks: Montacute Lord fake fur lined.

Here are my new boots by Clarks: Montacute Lord with a wool lining.

Pls. notice the nice broguing.

They were on sale online for 112 Euros instead of 140 Euros.

Quite a bargain and worth a try.

The colour is brown, not kind of red (iPhone cam...)

Do you like my red sweater?

Nice Brummschädel after last night's Glühwein Action with Neighbours. Aua, aua mein Kopp!

Accordion chinos.

Back to corduroy.

Do you like to wear an OCBD? I do!
