At last, after the recent snow, it has warmed up and some of the foreign birds have arrived from warmer climes. These ducks arrived today and are making themselves useful eating the duckweed in our pond.

Next time we drive past Maastricht, we are going to take a look at Selexyz Dominicanen. There&#8217;s an article in the Guardian architecture section about this book shop in a converted church, and it looks spectacular. The architects were Merkx + Girod, and the photo above is from their website..

If you&#8217;ve seen a typical Germany pharmacy (or chemist), you&#8217;ll understand why. They are usually fitted out with the top-of-the-market shop fittings and very well-staffed.

The view this morning at 7:20. It has been snowing most of the night, and the forecast is for more to come today. It should warm up a bit tomorrow, so I hope the winter might have gone after the weekend!
