Is that an open ticket for the weekend so you could go home and go back, it's a choice mateNeed to decide whether I want to rent a tent at Wacken Open Air or drive in and out every night. Anybody has been there and has an opinion?
It's 4 days of music plus one accommodation day in advance.

Good Morning Fella's, Today We have the passing of the Trucks, about 150 trucks of all kinds pass through the town making there way to a spot just outside the town, just one long possession of gleaming lorries, very close to my heart being in transport all my life, I will be going shortly to get a good viewing spot ☕ ☕ ☕ ☕

Really enjoying the World Cup so far—especially that USA match, which had me completely glued to the screen from start to finish. Looking forward to today's marquee games, particularly Brazil vs. Morocco, and can't wait to see what surprises and storylines emerge as the tournament unfolds. ⚽🍻

Spent yesterday at the Giants game with my brother—Capitol Corridor train, ferry ride into San Francisco, and sunshine at the ballpark. Hard to beat a day of baseball, good company, and a cold drink by the bay. ⚾🍻

Been following the exploits of Scotland's famous Tartan Army over in Boston. Apparently they've chartered fleets of yellow school buses to ferry supporters from the pubs out to the matches, while thousands march through the city behind bagpipes and kilts. The stories about Boston bars running short of beer seem to be true as well! What impresses me most isn't the drinking though – it's the loyalty. Scotland waited nearly three decades to get back to a World Cup and tens of thousands of supporters crossed an ocean just to sing, march and back their team. That's football done properly. 🍺🏴

You have earned some laying in man. I'm looking forward to one Sunday - Saturday I'm up early(ish) to meet a friend for breakfast. This morning though just the normal up at 0530 to hang with and make coffee for the wife while she gets ready to go to work - before school care at our local elementary school.
@a-canadian-cat ....you are an early riser mate, when I was working being in transport I would have early starts, must say I have got out of the getting up early, still wake up early now I watched TV or read before I rise 7-30 / 8-00 beauty of retirement

Would it be like the VTV here? The Vehicle Technical Inspection. We get it done (in my case, since it's a 2020 model) every year, specifically in November. It's done each month according to the last digit of the license plate; in my case #1, it's November.
