Timbuktu took the ship by storm

This weekend has been quite good even if I'm still recovering from all kinds of health issues. Nothing too serious, and in any case I assume it's better for all if I leave the details out. One thing that has been helping me recover was the concert  I went to on Friday at A38. Timbuktu was amazing live. Lots of dancing and shouting definitely the best concert for a very long time.

Timbuktu in action.

Someone else wanted to get some other action probably got disappointed when noticing the little package was missing.

This night gets 2 thumbs up and silly smiles from both me and Karin.

Crossing bridges

Lunch break at the Danube. The view of the Freedom bridge, Gellért bath and a monastery is making me think. Is it freedom bridge because you have to choose to go either to the bath and indulge or to the monastery and live a simple life with God.

 Tough decision ehrrm.....

Denim top, skirt with scarf print and belt/vintage

I choose to not even cross the bridge and go back to work.

Sunday Sunny Sunday

Best way to start the week is to let your brain stay in the weekend. Now my mind is sitting at a restaurant drinking sparkling wine with friends while my body is typing this post.

Cheers to myself.

We went from lunch to a beer festival. Karin and I both wore beer camouflage tops. It made no sense, it was still visible we had a beer in our hand all the time.

Money were spent.

Bruno found a dog to play with.

We found the dog's owners, a cool happy Spanish couple. That was most of my Sunday, not a bad one at all.

OOOOPS! I just realized this wasn't my Sunday, but actually Saturday :)

 Nevermind it would have made a good Sunday as well.

Mad Style or Bad Style. Wild thing

Suddenly it's discustingly cold and raining outside. So I though we all needed a little something to warm us up, a nice memory of a wild and hot delivery man. That day was super hot indeed and he knew when he was getting dressed in the morning. The wild thing is another subject. Do you think he is as wild as it was hot, did he feel wild when getting dressed? Is it a lie? Are these questions too much for you to think about?

                                                                           

Most important question as always is this 

  

Mad Style or Bad Style?                                                                                   

Our daily bread from yesterday

Ah,it's Monday again...

I might just go home and buy myself a Bacardi braser and a tegnapi zsömle. (yesterday's roll).

What are you doing today?

Wine and moonshine

Yesterday I went to see a short dance performance up in the castle district. It was in a place called Villa and is under construction but they have made something really cool and that is the walls that opens and gives you a view of Budapest. 

Walls are closed. Wine is opened.

Walls are open.

Cheesy full moon picture.

The full moon and me...

Used whores

Kurvajó túrkálo.

For those who speak Hungarian this is a mix of the words second hand shop and fucking good or actually whore good. I should go inside and check if it really is that good, the only problem is that they have set the expectations very high and I don't want to be disappointed. There's a possibility it's a code name. The first brothel looking like a second hand shop. The thing is that turkáló not only means second hand but something you sort of dig around with your hands in. 

It does happen that I speculate too much.

Blood moon and sauerkraut.

On Tuesday I hung out with some of my favourite people on a roof top in Buda. It started with a beer and some sausages and ended we had sauerkraut throwing competition over the fence. It was ridiculous, but so is sauerkraut.

The fence.

The blood moon put us in a good light, better than deserved. Thanks moon.

Mad Style or Bad Style. Surprise stockings.

Do you have problems with ass sweat in this heat wave? I definitely do and then I found the saviour, the "Meglepetés harisnyanadrág" (surprise tights) that gives a nice airflow.

But then again comes the important question
Are they  

Mad Style or Bad Style?

Happy feet

Pink sky

Pink sandals and pimped toenails. Nothing better than getting rid of some dead skin on your feet and get fun feet at the same time.

I come from Sweden

Back in Budapest again and already found some trash to hang out with.

Scratching the back of trash is a completely altruistic behaviour. Some people might say it's just meaningless, but we all come from different places. I come from Sweden.Literally.

Caught up in the cables

On Friday I went to Flatlab's event The Newborns. Flatlab is a flat studio at Baross utca. It started with six designers and now two more have moved in.



These cables from Tilka which you can buy in the showroom was what got my attention for some reason.  The truth is I was very tired and the colours gave me a kick. I got caught up in the cables, so to say. I like them though. Choose them in your favourite colour and you will want more and more electric stuff just to get more nice cables. Hmm, already thinking of what to get.

  

I recommend you to go and visit Flatlab. If you're not wild about cables you can check out clothes, hats and graphic design, I will definitely make my way back soon to see all that in a more awake state.



On the street in stripes

Fanni Mender at Liszt Ferenc Tér

Cool people eat ice cream not to get too hot.

 Stripes and ice cream, can never go wrong. Except when you try a new flavour and it turns out it's not what you expected. That is very disappointing. I didn't ask what kind of ice cream Fanni was eating but she looked happy with it.

I like people watching and plan to post more interesting, fascinating or simply stylish people I see on the streets.

 

Bear with the laundry

Do you think it's necessary for a city to have a laundromat for mosómedve (wash bear/ raccoon) do its own laundry? Free hanging on the side of the building is a plus for those in doubt.

Equal rights

In case you've been scouting for a cheap woman, it's Lady Sale! If you'd rather have a discounted man, no reason to weep as there's also:

Mr Sale. It's all about equal rights in Budapest.

Fight club

-Okay girlfriends, my umbrella fight club starts soon. See you at the pub later!

Black magic

Blue pants/Vintage, Boots/Barnoff

 Yesterday I couldn't stop thinking about a sign I saw during the day. Can I really turn black in just a few hours? I guess Michael Jackson turned white so that means it could happen.

Black magic anything will turn shit brown (skitbrun, that's what we call it in Swedish)

Darth Vader's in town

Spring came to town and so did Darth Vader

KGB mixing with loose people

Russian sisters and colleagues Tatiana and Oksana stopped by the Farsang (carnival) party the other night to spy on the local crowd. 

They both got fired when KGB realized they had been hanging out with American superheroes and other loose people. 

Do you take tampons?

Nooooo,  you don't look fat in that colour!

You can run but you can't hide

Panda and nun. Unexpected match

I was attacked by a party animal, look at my wound

BANG!
