Dire times indeed. Jazzahead in Bremen, due April 23rd to 26th, has been postponed to April 29th to May 2nd, 2021. The wonderful XJazz Festival in Berlin, May 6th to 10th, has been cancelled. The 21st Capetown International Jazz Festival, which was scheduled to run this upcoming weekend and usually draws over 40.000 attendees, will…
Gina is in heat again. We urge you to put your (male) dogs on the leash whenever she’s roaming outside. Thank you for your cooperation.
We’ve not been able to post anything new in the past two weeks simply because a dear friend of ours was dying of lung cancer. Everything went so incredibly fast – the first diagnosis was just 5 months ago. It really reminded me to live your life as if each day would be your last….
As this year’s outdoor and garden season comes to a close, we’ve moved back in to our apartment in Prenzlauer Berg which, I have to admit, also does have its charme (yes, a real kitchen, bathrooms, big TV, even central heating!).

Gina is heartily enjoying the warm, late-summer period here in Berlin. She had a lot to celebrate in recent weeks and now prepares for the next garden party which will take place on Sunday in beautiful Rosenthal in Northern Berlin. She also slowly but surely changes her fur these days and helps reaping all remaining…
No, this is not a new name for a girl group. Even though Gina loves playing in the pool, she didn’t really enjoy the little bath to cool her down in this current heatwave in Berlin. While many of the clubs are on a summer schedule or no schedule at all, we are currently listening…
