Went for a walk in the Jufferswaard and Noordberg, a glacial-induced valley and moraine, to the south of Heelsum (and Renkum) and north of the Nether-Rhine.

Cows cooling down in between the jetties of the Nether Rhine
Picknick table atop the Noordberg, overlooking the Rhine, the village of Heteren and very far in the distance, the city of Nijmegen.

A list of top bands for an unknown user, Taylor Swift on position 1 followed by 9 post-hardcore bands

You'd be suprised how common it is to find fans that are actually as well.

I've got a 1000cc motorcycle, but something in my head keeps saying "Why not do a long-ass trip on a 50cc scooter?" πŸ€”

If you need a cool name: Suidae

It's the family name of pigs, like bovine for cows and canine for dogs. It does require your band to do pig squeals.

I've decided on my Song Of The Year for 2025, after going through a list of 64 songs, a shortlist of 16, squeezed down to 7 songs, to finally pick the winner..

Showing Teeth - Labyrinth

The song starts by ripping you out of your reality, by cat-like screams, grooves to center you, followed by a unique heavy vocal. It's fresh, it's new and just when you think you are adjusted, an angelic chorus comes in and that's it. You love this band now.

The song continues between heavy and cleans, has a nice groovy bridge and ends with a nice growl; congratulations, you have traversed the Labyrinth.
