How would you eat it with a ****ing helmet and oxygen mask on your face?

Dunno - ask a surviving Italian soldier from WW1

I really quite like Germany and the Germans

Do you think they like you also? Be honest.

Does not surprise me. Overpriced hotels for awful quality.

Instead I'm sat here with a €3 euro bottle of nero munching my €6 freshly made italian pizza on the balcony.

Oktoberfest is fair hootching tonight.

Will you be going out with your mates later?

The Europeans certainly know how to have a good time:

Dinner for One - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

It's the most frequently repeated TV programme ever.

on New Year's Eve 2003 alone, the sketch was broadcast 19 times

I just tried watching it once and failed

A bit more on that:

It is a curiosity that this sketch has become a tradition in Germany, where up to half the population may see it every year, but it is almost totally unknown in Britain.

German narrator Heinz Piper originally made a grammatical mistake in his introduction to the 18 minute version: He misquoted Warden’s line “Same procedure as every year” as “Same procedure than every year”. While the mistake appears to have gone unnoticed initially, it later prompted annual protest letters to the NDR, most notably from German teachers of English. The NDR eventually responded by editing the recording slightly, substituting a small bit of its audio track with audio recorded during one of the rehearsals. Thus, in 1988, the error had been edited out and Piper could be heard to say “Same procedure as every year”. This in turn annoyed some purists who would rather respect the original.

Now that is funny.

The butler is actually an English guy.

ClientCo want me to move to Florida for the winter (they're paying). I have to say I'm tempted given the forecast for snow next month and another severe winter, maybe I'll even be happier there if that's possible.

Never been to Florida, any downside?

Florida varies from retirement communities to vibrant cuban nightlife in Miami (which incidentally is one of the handsomest cities I've seen) to the Keys in the south.
Depends where you are, but you should have fun. Americans are far cooler than Germans.
