    Ah, the Aldstadt. Brings back some memories - unfortunately most were lost in a drunken haze...

    I seem to have the same symptoms, and would be interested in the diagnosis and prescribed treatment....
    In your case, a one-way trip to the vet...

    The longest bar in the world
    Since the rock band Toten Hosen dedicated their song "Altbierlied" (dark beer song) to Düsseldorf's pubs and bars, "the longest bar in the world" has become famous far beyond Düsseldorf. More than 250 pubs, restaurants and bars line the streets of the Old Town. Quaint breweries, trendy restaurants or student pubs with a friendly atmosphere - go for it and explore the variety!


    and then this:



    And it's damn hot...

    Son and girlfriend visiting for his birthday and to introduce us to the GF since they have just announced they are moving in together and we'd not actually met her yet.

    Went for a wander around Lincoln yesterday followed by Gin, Wine and Scrabble in the evening. The girl can drink, I'll give her that. She is only 24 though so she has youth on her side.

    Up at a reasonable hour this morning to get the Smoker lit and a pork leg on to smoke ready for this evening. 9 hours should do it

    Fans downstairs done, now the little lounge & the conservatory have large American style ceiling fans. Very pleasant to sit under.

    Master bedroom fan next.

    already have wall mounted fans in the office.
    Fan-tastic.

    Tomorrow the Missus is going into Winchester for Vintage so I'll pop along to a local car show in the morning then come home and watch some more motor racing and flake in front of the TV.

    How about you?

    Sneezing wheezing and coughing if the last five minutes is anything to go by.

    I suspect I shall remain indoors in the cool for the remains of the day.

    It's Swansea airshow today, but I'll be able to hear the racket from Neath.
