Single


Attended a “single” meeting at restaurant “Twins” on invitation of Astrid. http://www.citymates.nl/
A lively and entertaining evening ended in Cafe Touche - Korenmarkt 7 - Arnhem. Food and drinks were excellent. “Rabo Bank” sponsored the evening as an interested party in the single customers. Elwin from HAN did the research. “Rabo Bank” with a percentage of 25% singles is a leader in the single financial market and wants to solidify - increase their lead (other banks have max 7% single customers).
Some creative ideas:
- Rabo Single Party Festivals (with free drinks and food)
- Rabo Single Credit Cards that can be read by Rabo singles with their Rabo cellphone, indentifying the interests, marital and financial status of each single to other singles.
- Rabo Single Mortgages, you can take your percentage of the house to your new relation into his/hers mortgage.
- Rabo Single Mothers help, bridging the time between relationships with a lowered mortgage payments, babysitters and crèches.
- Rabo Resorts for singles on their own, without a home.
- Rabo Vibrators for single woman customers
- Rabo Single Insurance, cost are calculated on basis of the group rather than on 1 person.

Opening of the 1st single night in bar “Café de Kroeg”.
Petra attended the “Rabo Bank” meeting and invited me.

Cosy and informal atmosphere.
Had 2 ladies convinced that 4 days of strict strawberry diet with yoghurt gave me THE aftertaste.
The girls agreed that my body smelled sweet, but they backed out my invitation to taste my distinct raspberry flavor during intensified French kissing.
I became close with the blond strawberry girl, she was nice and needed comfort. Comfort and a touch of tenderness for being a single mom. The moment passed but her eyes, later when we parted, told me what I should have done.

Saturday night single men. WWW (wild women weekend) with Pim was actually the celebration of being a man. Gather around the watering holes, enjoy tribe strength, meet fellow warriors, hunters and fishermen. Men focused on music, beer, hobby, partner hunt and on protecting their family.
Discussion is not necessary, being together is important.
Peter Faber in Caveman confirms my case. Nice play and workshop.

The workshop, a crash course in acting by doing and using inner creativity flow, show moods by using foreign languages, write continuous, think up a sketch together and play it within 5 minutes before an audience.

Free lunch and Jazz



We had a good Varilux Jazzfestival.
However silvery white was the leading hair color of the people attending the festival. Luckily we had a Rose wine start in the afternoon before we went to Zevenaar.
We ignored the power wheelchairs, walking aids, walkers and rollators: Pim worked on his alcohol intolerance, Tatiana tried to stay calm and I did “in love” photos.
Picture from left to right: Tatiana reads me a poem of Carmen, Carmen Gomez Jazz Singer and me, Barbabe & Pim & me, ex colleagues neighbor & me.


There is no such thing as a free lunch. I came real close by tending the vegetable garden of HansV, himself in holiday. The details: 4 km of leisure bicycling (400 watt), watering along the main walkway of 18.50 m with 18 byways of 4.20 m (1 km walking) and 43 watering cans of 10 liter pumped (300 watt). Picture from left to right: pumping 430 liters of water, strawberry harvest, temperature was rising to 35 degrees centigrade and walking 1 kilometer with the watering can.
The strawberry made 2 liters of sorbet ice, of which 0.5 liter has already been recycled into human energy.
