@tcboyle Happy birthday, Tom! I've just read your latest What's New and will now translate it for https://t.co/4D7ILr5Pj6

[Ulrich Tepelmann @caesiumfluorid]

@tcboyle Glad to hear you can leave your house again. Did you drive yourself? Keep on with your progress! I think I know how you feel. Due to a stroke two and a half years ago I coudn't move my left side at all, but I learned to walk and ride my bike and drive a car again.

[Ulrich Tepelmann @caesiumfluorid]

@Haifons @tcboyle Yes, Fons, we had fun with T.C. in Hamburg! After two and a half years since my stroke I still cannot walk like I used to, but it's okay, considered that I couldn't move my left arm and leg at all.

[Ulrich Tepelmann @caesiumfluorid]

@Haifons @tcboyle Welcome back, Fons! Glad to hear that you're okay.

[Ulrich Tepelmann @caesiumfluorid]

@tcboyle_de @tcboyle Happy Birthday, dear Tom! May you grow up to be strong... (Bob Dylan)

@MirkoSchwarz5 @tcboyle And the universe ist not expanding so fast.

@tcboyle We had tickets for J.B.'s Concert in the Elbphilharmonie in Hamburg in March, but it was cancelled due to her sickness. R. I. P., Jane!

[Ulrich Tepelmann @caesiumfluorid]

@tcboyle Vielen Dank for a wonderful evening, Tom! It was a pleasure to see you and Fons and the good old Audimax again.

@Haifons @molldopeloob @tcboyle @naschbacke @berumuc @XulXenia @AnkeLange4 @nichttrinker I am reading the German translation, plus the first chapter in English (from https://t.co/VgRl1hiHSV).

@Haifons @molldopeloob @tcboyle @naschbacke @berumuc @XulXenia @AnkeLange4 @nichttrinker Rattenloch (rat hole) means a very dirty place, maybe too dirty for a hole-in-the-wall restaurant.

[Ulrich Tepelmann @caesiumfluorid]

@Haifons @molldopeloob @tcboyle @naschbacke @berumuc @XulXenia @AnkeLange4 @nichttrinker I live in Northern Germany and when I read the Word Klitsche, I don't think of a Restaurant, but rather a small Garage for example for car repairs.

@Haifons @tcboyle_de @tcboyle Fons, ich hoffe, du meinst mit BS nur das Buch und nicht das Schimpfwort.😀

[Ulrich Tepelmann @caesiumfluorid]

@tcboyle Me and my wife got tickets for Hamburg. See you there, Tom! And I hope to meet Fons and Holger, too.

[Ulrich Tepelmann @caesiumfluorid]

@Haifons @tcboyle @doubl_e003 Hi Fons! Since Hamburg ist on the schedule, we plan to go there. What are your plans? Could we possibly meet?

[Ulrich Tepelmann @caesiumfluorid]

@tcboyle Completely forgot about your birthday, Tom. I'm very sorry. I don't like birthdays like I used to do, especially my own. In only one year I'll reach your age.

[Ulrich Tepelmann @caesiumfluorid]

@Haifons @tcboyle Oh, it's easy. A Robert Burns quote. Watermusic.

[Ulrich Tepelmann @caesiumfluorid]

@EisMeer4 @tcboyle Bettina, did you compare the translations of Watermusic? (Richter / van Gunsteren?) How different are the two? I've only read the first. Is the latter any better?

[Ulrich Tepelmann @caesiumfluorid]

@Haifons @tcboyle @sadsmiledude @XulXenia @MelodyRose2002 @ToelckeNicola Hope you reach the Schauspielhaus in time! Tell the taxi driver to go fast.

[Ulrich Tepelmann @caesiumfluorid]

@Haifons @tcboyle @sadsmiledude @XulXenia @MelodyRose2002 @ToelckeNicola But how about Oldenburg near Bremen? Mr. Boyle never showed up in either of these two cities. But Hamburg will do as well. Or should we prepare for Koblenz one more time (remember 2019!)?

[Ulrich Tepelmann @caesiumfluorid]

@Haifons @tcboyle No, Fons, I remember one of Mr. Boyle's gigs in Germany (don't remember when and where), where there was a translation too. And I was wondering, why it took 2 different persons, for English and for German. I learned that there is no international sign language.
