They Are just Justs
The international running group of which I am part is known for its – let’s call it: creative – nicknames. A nickname has to be earned – you come to a few runs, you do something gloriously stupid, you are named. So when you first come to runs you are referred to as a “just”. Just + first name. Hence, these two would have been known as Just Johann and Just Friedrich if they had joined the HHH.
Five Picks in Alphabetical Order
Wheel that Barrow!
Wheelbarrows as art: painted on a length of hoarding, and hanging as an art installation, possibly.
Wheelbarrows as miniatures: with pebbles, and with a enjoyable load.
Wheelbarrows being worked hard: by a market stall holder and my favourite little worker of all.

Weakness or Strength?
Castle Wildenstein is a spur castle, i.e. a castle built on a mountain peak as a fortification. It was built in the 13th century in the Swabian Alb, above the young Danube. Access is through a high wooden bridge on some spindly looking pillars.
This fortitude against capture would also be a weakness if the (small) army besieging the castle had enough time on its hand (and no one would come to the aide of the beleaguered castle inhabitants).
