Well I've just been into Köln (Cologne) train station and its heaving with people in fancy dress and quite a few wobbly legs with red noses. There was a brass band marching along the street who ended up playing in the main throughfare. All very peaceful and looks like fun except the place I wanted to go to was full, bastards, still had a nice young lady cut my hair.

Its can be a great time for going to the pubs as they tend to be open for around 80 hours and everyone is rather drunk and, putting it mildly, randy...
