There is a funny street name in Ripon which I can not remember right now - a sure sign that it's been way too long since my last visit there!<br />Here in Ludwigsbug, my favourite street name is Fröhliche Morgensonne, cheerful morning sun. I like to imagine the residents of that street being of a cheerful nature, hopping out of bed with a smile on their faces every morning, especially when the sun shines.<br /><br />Love the bench and would not mind having my sandwich there, or just sit and ponder.Librarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05704656564078750607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-35039892923389246102021-06-11T06:49:45.597+01:002021-06-11T06:49:45.597+01:00Thank you for telling us, Jennifer!
