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...

I would assume someone with Suity's rep as a cocksman will be heading to Hamburg at the weekend to spend some euros on cheap Eastern European poontang ??

I once destroyed the suspension of a rather nice Alfa on the motorway from Brussels to Spa. Hit a pothole at 130 kmh and it was never the same again.

Originally posted by suityou01 View PostI learned in Antwerp that satnav s and road signs are equally useless. I ended up doing 50mph the wrong way down a tram way on a head on collision with an oncoming tram, and was forced to leave the tram way once I figured out what was going on. 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.
Alles in ordnung, am mein apartment im Bielesfeld. :kisses:

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.
