My Sister Is The Best Swiss Miller!

My sister Marlene learned one of the oldest trades of mankind. She just completed her three-year apprenticeship as miller with the best marks of the year.



Because Marlene was the best, she was awarded with a scholarship to study mill technology at university. However, she wants to give herself two years to gain more experience. One should not start to study before one is 50.

Congratulations Marlene, you are great and we are proud of you.

Ms Mac said...

My God! You must be thoroughly sick of people telling you how much you look like your sister!

Well done, Marlene!

Congrats!

Now what's a miller?

Mr. Urs said...

Michal, I thought you're a farm boy too. A miller works in, operates, or owns a mill, especially a grain mill.

Ms Mac, well it shows that our parents were faithful to each other.
