    Luton to Dortmand - then a train to Cologne. No point living there if you're not going to use its one main benefit.

      I was merely pointing out that you can still fly from Gatwick to Cologne with easyjet.

      You arrive in the afternoon, work late each day to make up your hours, and then leave at a reasonable hour on the Friday.

      Oh - and it's Antipodean by the way.

        Judging by the sample on this forum, the Germans seems to be mopping up all our muppet contractors.
        What must their IT people be like, if they're that desperate?

        Are you a loser?
        Didn't do too well at school?
        Can't make it in the most dynamic economy in Europe?
        No good with women?

        Then VOTE UKIP! We'll make you whole again

            Oi
            Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

                Takes too long on a Monday. Land at 09:20 then catch the bus to Dortmund Hpf (30 mins plus waiting time)
                ICE to Koeln 1:40. Then change to Bonn. Then Ubahn to work. Over 3 hrs travelling and won't get into Work until after 12.

                Ryanscare 07:55 to Koeln arr 10:55, taxi to work there by 11:30.

                Or not

                Edit : And I'm not living there

                  No as I change countries quite often. Can you recommend one that does both Germany and UK for that price?

                    So you're...spending the day at the airport?
                    Practically perfect in every way....there's a time and (more importantly) a place for malarkey.
