    Guten tag, Wie geht's?

    I hear calls regarding my whereabouts echoing in the distance, fear not, I'm still alive. Just busy.

    There is much to be told, stories of adventure, intrigue, and and high speed car chases. But now is not the time to tell it… vielleicht später.

    Oh and I've left the world of contracting to set up my own consultancy here in Munich. Must have taken me a year to become established (the busy part), but it was worth it. My office overlooks the English garden, it's beautiful. Now the business has several clients so every minute is a busy one, but it's exciting. Working on projects that would make a difference, which was all I ever wanted, besides making a fat pile of cash.

    So for those of you thinking about plan B, go for it. But my suggestion is stick to what you know.

    So what did I miss?

              Can you speak proper Boarisch or a just one of us pathetic Ausländer‎?

              You can make some practice here:

              Bayrisches Wrterbuch
              <Insert idea here> will never be adopted because the politicians are in the pockets of the banks!

                I'm sure he speaks proper German and the locals let him off with not knowing the local dialect.

                  Much prefer the Saxony dialect compared to the Bayern dialect, words too close together here. More obsessed with reading then speaking these days, always another noun or adjective to learn, Zu oder nach?, verb placement drives me up the wall.
