Meeting Oriane

I had the momentum call at 1 pm and Neil and I went out for a coffee and a croissant at the French before that.
I also had a chat with the Shoemaker to get a sole on my new boots.

We found out that tomorrow is a public holiday in Berlin - a one off - which totally ruined my plans to buy Neils Birthday present on Thursday.

So we cycled to Hermann Platz together and bought a beautiful new bathgown for him - one he tried on and chose - so that he would like it too.

Back home it was almost time for me to get to Friedrichshain to meet Oriane.
We had planned to make food and drink water.

Reality was - 3 Negronis at an Italian, some food after that and a lot of fun.

We did not touch her flat at all.

It was a great evening.

I was home after midnight - and drank loads of water ......
