Autumn






The house is finally painted, a job that has taken the whole summer, just a few hours per month as background task. Henk Zoontjes who last painted the house about 17 years ago earns my praise and admiration. I have not found one blister nor any sign of flaking. A true craftsman. Anyway, I have to say that because, despite being almost 80 years old, he is still an intimidating figure in his leathers tearing around on his powerful motorbike. He also does not miss his karate evenings, and is perhaps the oldest black-belt in the country.
