Sauna


When visiting my brother a sauna session is always on the schedule. Heat, steam and cold beer. A perfect mix.

Mike & the mechanics


With a lot less pain than expected I managed to change the rear suspension on the golf. Now she's ready for some thousand kilometers of driving this summer. Sweet.

We're keeping our fingers crossed she won't sink.
