Seàn buys a flat and goes shopping

And I helped him doing it. :)
First we had a huge brunch at Cafe Mirell, talking about how to furnish the flat Seàn will buy soon in Geßlerstraße, not even ten minutes from my place. I helped writing the letter to get the flat, and as far as I know, it worked. The date with the notary will be next week.
Then I can start playing with colours and designs to make this flat a real home for Seàn. I am looking forward to it.
This hard work done, we went shopping at "Galeries Lafayette". They were open this Sunday, no idea why. Berliners always find some weird reason to do shopping on Sundays. Maybe it was the installation of this green wall above the doors. Then again, maybe not.
We enjoyed inspecting all the latest fashion on the upper floors and the delicacies in the basement. We bought cheese and tartes d'abricots (two for the prize of one, we couldn't resist, even after all the brunch we had had.) Hmmmmm, de-li-ci-ous!
And today, surprize-surprize, some collegues came to my office, bringing two bottles of ver.di wine, a cute bunch of flowers, and a letter from my big boss Frank Bsirske: Congratulations for working with the union for 25 years now. Hurrray!
And I will get a bonus of 750 Euro plus an extra day off. Hurrray!
