Time to get the heavy bag in place and work through some solid combinations

My Friday after-work. Time to get the heavy bag in place and work through some solid combinations.

It has been a day with several bowls of oatmeal, so I should be fit for the fight. This is my first boxing session of the week. The other days have been filled with walking, cycling and kettlebells. An OK week.

And because it is Friday, I thought an oatmeal stout would be the perfect finish. For anyone completely lost by now, it is a dark beer style closely related to porter. No luck finding one, though. Everyone seems to go for lager or pilsner on a Friday. A rather boring choice, if you ask me.

The philanthropic foundation contributes to the city, and what we continue to develop through the board

I just took a bicycle tour to stop and admire the buildings, and to reflect on what this philanthropic foundation contributes to the city, and what we continue to develop through the board.

Created a century ago, the foundation had a clear social purpose: to provide good housing for people connected to the working life of the city.

Today, the buildings contain more than 100 apartments and are protected for their architecture, craftsmanship and social history. Their story also reflects the importance of shipping and the harbour to the city’s development.
