The dreaded coloured sticks

It’s another day of t-shirt weather, so we had a walk along the valley before lunch.

We had lunch at cafe Waldschluecht, and made our way back down the hill towards home. On the path down to the railway track, a forest of colourful sticks has appeared.

These sticks are bad news, as they are placed there by engineering surveyors. We have known for years that the railway company would like to add another track past our house. The problem with this is that whereas now we just hop across the railway line to get to our garden path, a double track would mean that an underpass will have to be provided. This would involve a huge amount of excavation and general disruption. We can only hope it never happens.
