You know that Seidensticker shirts are made in Bielefeld? I built one of their systems some years back and they have a factory outlet shop there so pop along and treat Mrs. SY to some nice blouses. Also Schueco windows, doors, etc. are also made there and another, very big company is Dr. Oetker who make everything from Wagner Pizzas to Binding Beer and some UK products as well. Take a tour round the factory or go to the cook studio...

Just ask somebody in the street - nearest bus stop and what bus(es) to get. Works for me in when away from home in any country.

A quick bit of copy and paste into a spreadsheet gives me 11.526 km.

I suggest that Suity uses public transport.

But a taxi seems eminently suitable until he works out a public transport route.

And most folks are only too happy to help.

I heard a great story a few months ago about someone asking for directions in Japan and they were taken to the local police station where an English speaker was available, and it was all sorted out.

When I was in Frankfurt, car hire was less than 50 euro per day. 40 I think.

Else get a cab

Yes, but I have to get to work in a timely fashion. I am in a fairly rural area and having a rough idea is more than a pre-requisite. It aint Glasgow you know
