Walked to the carpet shop at Diebugerstrasse, but didn't find any carpets I liked. Instead I found the British Shop just opposite the carpet shop, where they had a book bargain! Bought Salmon Rushdie The ground beneath the feet, Kafka's The trial, Dostojevski's Crime and punishment, Woolf's To the lighthouse, and Ishiguro's When we were orphans. On my way home I dropped by the Eva Trio shop (Altaglich Schoenes) an der Stadtkirche, and picked up my new Eva Trio Duraline frying pan! Then I went to the furniture pusher at Luisenplatz and looked at some more carpets. They will send me an offer.
Home I baked a couple of breads, vacuum cleaned, finished The unconsoled and Dubliners, started - and finished When we were orphans.

After two weeks of detoxicating the pipes, the shower facilities are again available. Celebrated that with a nice 6 km run in 17 DEG C and light rain.
