    Its all gone quiet in Bielefeld as the Spurs game (against Basel) is live on free to air German TV and the score line, along with the flow of play is not flattering to them...

    Did a couple of years there and quite enjoyed it. Once you get used to their driving. The French have a saying - as safe as a Belgian pavement.

The exit from the tram way was a kerb, and long grass verge. It was like playing driver on the Playstation.

    No doubt I'll get my letter from Interpol

    Once leaving Belgium the satnav and roads became much much easier.

    Any other Brits working there?

    When I did my first contract in Europe there were a few others around who really helped me find my feet - pubs, restaurants, laundry (till I got a flat), transport (I was getting taxis everywhere at first). Before long I felt right at home. They mostly went home weekends but I stayed to do a bit of tourist stuff and get to know the city I was working in - a map and just walk everywhere around the centre is the way to do it.

    Get one city under yer belt the rest comes easy although I was used to travelling it's different being away from home for work.
