About to watch Oliver! Splurged and got the good seats

A proper pint. #guinness on tap in Europe always tastes better. Unfortunately it's a lot more expensive too.

If I were moving to #london I would like Bethnal Green or Shoreditch I think. A little away from the central area but still vibrant. Victoria park is a gem.

I'm in London and, appropriately I was greeted by an Aston Martin

My day sized sample of #Budapest has been cool. I'll definitely visit again someday for longer

Cottage cheese dumpling) a #Hungarian desert) not bad but would take some getting used to.

Belvedere art museum was neat in some ways. Amazing building. We've only walked the upper so far. Saw Klimt "The Kiss" as well as some other #art. I'm not really a "go to the museum" guy so I'll read up on things. Sorry no alt text. My fav in this batch is the village.

I'm not in the right place to find Hefe but I'm happy to get one at lunch today. Schneider Weisse. So good. Das ist gut! Also two Ferrari's drove by in short order which was very cool. #vienna

I can't eat veal (alpha gal) so chicken schnitzel it is. This is pretty darn good.

kinda didn't realize it was Oktoberfest #Vienna

I had a bunch of good food in Prague. The best restaurant was out of the center of the city by a bit.. Dejvická Sokolovna. It was by a train station. The duck was so good and the price was perfect. #Prague #Duck #food

Duck with red cabbage. Potato dumplings Ave bread dumplings. Yum!

Radler along the #Danube. Not a bad way to spend an afternoon. At the lighthouse cafe.

Bill @rawlinson.us · 26/09/2026

Huge. I mean the biggest, billboard, in #Vienna had a bit of fun at corporal bone spurs. I used Google translate. Initially, instead of "fluff" it said blah blah..

Billboard features an emoticon of Trump and the caption "Also orange but without the fluff"

Bill @rawlinson.us · 26/09/2026

I'm really digging Vienna. The huge outdoor food market Brunnenmarkt was super cool - all the food!! We've not even hit the more tourist focused stuff and we've really liked it here.

020

Bill @rawlinson.us · 25/09/2026

Interesting. Restaurant put a little solar light on the table with a coaster over the panel. It's a brief political message. Google translate helped my limited German. The sentiment isn't wrong - protect your freedoms. #democracy

Arrived in Vienna. Accidentally picked a vegetarian/vegan place for dinner. It's a cool joint. Looking forward to my quiche! The view from my seat is pretty good.

In Prague if you look of the Charles bridge at the right moment you'll see a troll on a dock.. if you walk to find a better view you'll discover it's a Vodyanoy - or, in #DnD terms a Sahuagin. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vodyanoy

Shitty photo of a beautiful area somewhere between Prague and Vienna

Fancy coasters to catch the condensation I guess? It's ceramic. At the two places we went with art nouveau vibes they used these

My last beer in the Czech Republic. Plus a fancy pastry filled with apricot in a beautiful setting at the train station

Beer on the left with traditional Czech head. Pastry on the right in the form of a bowtie or butterfly

On a train to Kutna Hora. Not sure where we were supposed to sit so we sat in an empty car room thing. Hope we don't get in trouble in the #Czech Republic cs.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kutn%C3...

~$11 for a massive duck lunch. I'm definitely being spoiled. I could live in #Prague for this

Bill @rawlinson.us · 21/09/2026

The views can be pretty stunning in #Prague #Praha as well.

020

Bill @rawlinson.us · 21/09/2026

#Prague is full of contrasting architecture. It's an interesting city grand in scale.

Bill @rawlinson.us · 20/09/2026

Duck Confit and little potato dumplings. Good stuff

Pilsner in Prague hits different. Like a Guinness in Dublin.

The lighting designer here at the Athro lounge in #Aberystwyth 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 had a good time

Some crazy college kids swimming in the dark sea .. it's cold and windy.

Bill @rawlinson.us · 17/09/2026

This view from the main hall/student union? over the Irish Sea at Prifysgol Aberystwyth (University) never gets remotely old. I would eat at this table every day were I a student or faculty here.

Clouds lightly obscuring the sun and most of the sky. The view is down a long hill, over the central campus courtyard, towards the blue/gray sea rippling in the distance.

Photos around town Aberystwyth #wales

Narrow shop lined road with a grassy farm hill in the background

Busy shopping and residential area In the center of town. A wooded Hill in the background

Flags whipping in the wind along the Irish sea sure

A fat, but never contented, sea gull waiting for a chance to steal food from a passerby.

A proper pint on a breezy day by the sea.

It's a beautiful cool morning in #Aberystwyth #Wales The shower at The Bunk House was brief and brisk but this view is always lovely

Weirdly our plane couldn't go to the terminal so we're bussing but I got a cool view of a turbine

Business class is definitely nice on the long flights. I didn't sleep long but the two hours I did sleep were solid. Landing while sitting at an angle is a weird feeling.

I've spent some time today trying to really improve the UI experience - I'm no UI developer but I think this is a vast improvement on my #bingo implementation I'm obscuring the qr code and link because its a small server and I don't know how much traffic it can handle

Bill @rawlinson.us · 12/09/2026

My daughter asked me to make a client/server bingo game today. So I did. @digitalocean.com made it absurdly easy for me to deploy it from my github repo. like- wow. Thanks! Honestly the easiest server deployment/setup EVER. Its a small server so I'm not going to share the URL. Screenshot:

My wife went Apple picking at a neighbor who has a single apple tree. She brought home so many apples! Made tons of sauce. Today I #baked a pie and some hand pies. I'm not a great baker but I'm pretty pleased. #cooking

Apple and blueberry handpies. Had some fresh then frozen blueberries that added some extra sour to the mix. The are very tasty. Too, small 3" diameter, so I ate two right away.
