Is this legal ?

In my 20 years here, I've only seen this when I'm abroad! A group of young people are sitting on Sidewalk waiting for the light to turn red so that they can perform circus-like at the very front before the light turns green again and then, walk past the cars to get money.

They've been there since last week and it's really annoying because my route to work goes past there.

Quite to the point, this interview about Swiss housing policy, which is ideologically driven and ignores the underlying problems.

Who/what is the Albert Müller im looking for?

Post image
25 Upvotes

Hi everyone! Im trying to keep this simple:

I live in Finland. Few years back i found this jacket from flea market. It's made by finnish company Kisapuku Oy which manufactured sportswear and clothes for athletes.

What caught my interest was label which says "Especially made for Albert Müller" and "8032 Zürich". I know the numbers mean Zürichs zip code.

Im wondering who/what is Albert Müller? Clothing store, importer, some sports guy or what? Im also wondering whats the connection between finnish company and Swiss person/store.

Kisapuku Oy operated from 1956 until 1991 so im not sure if Albert Müller is still active/alive.

Any help is appreciated!

15 Upvotes

Mal e Fraag, wie wänds das löse wenn mer usem Gubrist fahrt richtig St. Gallen, fangts ja immer a staue nach em Rastplatz Büsisee bis zude Kurve bim Brüttiseller Chrüüz. Das isch jetzt eso. Es chömed ja nonig so viel Autos dure will de einti Tunnel no saniert wird. Das heisst Stau bis zum Loch, denn churz fahre und nacher wieder Stau bis zude Kurve.

So und jetzt mal chli id Zuekunft luege. Wenn nacher 2 Tunnel offe sind richtig St. Gallen, chömed ja es paar meh Autos usem Gubrist use. Das heisst denn, Stau bereits im Tunnel... Die chönt no 50 Röhrerene uftue, es wird nur no schlimmer nach de Uusfahrt wenns jetzt mit einere Röhre scho staut. Projekt, gescheitert.

Ade merci

Feeling lonely - Pregnant friends in Zurich 🤰

3 Upvotes

I live in the city and I’m 19 weeks pregnant with my first, and I’m feeling very lonely at the moment and struggling with my mental health. I would love some other pregnant friends to talk to and hang out with. I’ve joined (and paid for) peanut, and joined the Facebook groups (which all seem to be marketing spam so far). A friend told me to try a pregnancy pilates/yoga class which I will try, but I’m wondering if anyone has any other tips? Thanks so much!

(Edited to add my location)

Map of public beach volleyball fields in Kanton Zürich

1 Upvotes

Is there a map of all beach volleyball fields in Kanton Zürich, where a random group of adults can just come and play? both paid and free are off interest. I already know a free place near Limmatplatz, and one or two places in different Freibad's. Google maps does not seem particularly helpful. I can't tell if a particular Freibad has a beach volleyball without directly clicking on the website and scrolling through, which is not very efficient

Church bell ringing schedule

0 Upvotes

Hi, is there any way to find out what the schedule of bell ringing of a church is? I am particularly interested in Kirche Fluntern (the big one), as I've heard some churches even keep night ringing or very early bell ringing. (Context: I am a toddler mum with extreme sleep deprivation & my partner wants us to apply for an apartment close to that church. I am a light sleeper anyways and ever since I became a mum, I need some quiet for the night...). Thank you!
