What a great actress. As I post this , I am downloading The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie. This gave her her first Oscar. It is a wonderful film and I recommend it to anyone to watch. I loved her later performances in Downton Abbey and the Harry Potter films. Simply irreplaceable.

I am sure the employees did their best to advise you correctly , but your situation was complicated. I am glad you got it sorted.

Why doesnt he cut in normal hours? Instead of such anti social hours

Sven-Göran Ericksson . A successful soccer coach , both in England and Germany. And eslewhere. But for me the most impressive thing is the way he met his death. A few months ago , he announced he had terminal cancer and he said it was OK. He was calm and dignified about his approaching death. I onl...

I do not have a smart phone and I never will.

I do not have internet access in my flat. I go to my library and there I download stuff from Netflix. No longer. After recent changes, downloads are no longer possible on the Windows app. More digital exclusion. How sad. So I have closed my account. What about alternatives such as Disney orAmazon Pr...

There is another free course beginning next week. Wednesday 14th August. It is A2 level. Ckeck this out on
Deutsche für Dich at Kleinod Bar. The teacher is really good.

I would like to get a spare set of keys made as a precaution to losing the originals. I live in a block of flats so there are 2 keys. One for the communal door and one for my own door. I got my own door key cut without any problem, but the communal key is proving more difficult. The mann said someth...

Why not buy a simple fan? I have one which I put on the desk next to me when I am working. It will cost less then 20 euros.

I use my microwave a lot. The main use is for jacket potatoes which would take far too long in an oven. It is a simple one. The simplest I could find. Just two dials. One for time and one for power. Cost about 30 euros a few years back. Now I am looking at an air fryer to go with the micro wave. How...

So my boys are thru to the final. On Sunday and against Spain. The result against the Dutch was deserved and England played with a positive mind set. Let us hope for more of the same against Spain. I hope the weather is good on Sunday as I can watch the game outside as my local pub puts a large scre...

There is a BBC radio program called Last Word which every week pays tribute to well known people who has died recently.

I go to a good German lesson at 19.00 every Tuesday at 19.00 at a bar called Kleinod. It is near S bahn Sonnenalle. The lessons are free as the teacher gets her income from somewhere else. The level is B2 and you should be at least a good B1 if you want to benefit. The website is called Deutsche für...

Am I dreaming? Have England just won on penalties?

Turkey have just won. It was a great game apparently , but I could not find it on the TV.
Turkey v Germany in the final?

Good to know. I will stick to my 49 euro card as ít gives me more flexibility

Got to fancy Spain.

My bar is Mollenfriedhof, Scheffelstrasse 2. Tram 21 stops right outside. Stop is called Loeper Platz. But it gets a bit smokey sometimes.

Why should I name the bar?
