Wasteland

Two days ago München, yesterday Leipzig, today Berlin, when are Trucks turning right going to stop running cyclists over ?   

I'll second peanut butter, oatcakes, and big bags of Alpen Müsli, and  summer lighting beer.

Over by the boarder with CZ. and Österreich, this time, but I also know the areas around Bad Tölz and Oberstdorf , close to Oberstdorf was the first time I stood next to a ski jump and realised that those guys must be crazy.

I was in Bayern for several days a couple of weeks ago snow shoeing it through the mountains with a friend and his dog, you are correct Jeremy, it is truly beautiful ! 

Happened to me too a few years back, you need to get some heavy duty driers in in your kitchen ASAP , in my case the Hausverwaltung arranged that. Make sure the the drying machines have an independent electric meter, to count the electricity they are using, you don't need to pay that , your neighbors do , it will run into the high hundreds €€€. For now empty the room open windows, throw away the wet stuff. When I go away for more than a night or two I always turn my water off at the mains , I don't know why others leave theirs on.

I have never been to those two places, but I appreciate your somewhat random blurted out and straight to the point review .

You mean shout first, don't think at all.

I don't use the BVG bus that often, however this morning I jumped on the bus 104, said hallo to the driver, put down my €5 note on the little tray , and asked for a single ticket, the driver immediately shouted at me that he wasn't going to accept my fiver because it looked to old, I said that it's a perfectly ordinary €5 note and that I wanted to pay, he shouted back that he had also been to school , That I should give him some type of other money and if I had a problem then I should phone the BVG. I thought for a second, how to react, smiling inwardly I gave him a rather new looking €20 note, he was fuming and had to give me almost all of his change, as I turned to find a seat , he once again shouted at the top of his voice, that I shouldn't  expect him to say thank you. The Berlin bus drivers have a bad reputation and it is sometimes justified.
