We are on our way back home to Konstanz after 2 weeks at the Bauernhof in Bayern and we just stopped at Cafe Huttner at Inning am Ammersee. Doesn’t @Robinson100 or another of you live near or on that lake? Inning seems very nice although I wish we had had time to actually see the lake. We decided to make it a stop on the way next year. The timing from Bodensee to Windpassing is very convenient.

I was driving through Garmish the other weekend, I noticed that the Wank garage had shut for good. This garage was featured on a much older version of Top Gear many years ago. All very sad to see it gone.

It seemed that somebody had taken their car to the Wank garage, and the car came back with a lot more faults than when it went in with, the others just laughed at him and said what do you expect when you take your car for repair at the wank garage.

FFS, this is Germany, put some socks on before the Sandalen-Gestapo catches you and hands you over to the ICE! You have to blend with the crowd, thou froward clapper-clawed minnow!

Thanks to anyone and everyone who came. I have one last ask, German bureaucracy doesn’t seem to like English speaking things going on and is doing its damnedest to throw obstacles in our path. Please sign and spread the word 🙏

What is a Panto?:

Pantomime (pæntəˌmaɪm; informally Panto) is a type of musical comedy stage production designed for
family entertainment, generally combining broad and topical humour and cross-dressing actors with a story
more or less based on a well-known fairy tale, fable or folk tale. Pantomime is a participatory form of theatre
developed in England in the 18th century in which the audience is encouraged and expected to sing along
with certain parts of the music and to shout out phrases to the performers.

Think you know the story of Snow White? Think again! This version is packed with surprising twists and
turns that the original left out—and you won’t want to miss it. Magic, laughs, surprises for all ages! It’s that
magical time of year again when the air is filled with laughter, song, and a sprinkle of fairy tale magic—yes,
it’s Panto season! We’re thrilled to bring you a spectacular rendition of Snow White and….


Book now! This enchanting production makes the perfect holiday gift for friends and family.
Mark your calendars and join us for an unforgettable journey into the world of Snow White and…!

Way way down South here on the Bodensee it's raining cats and dogs. At least the temp is finally a bit above freezing though. My little patootie is stayin' put tonight. Gonna watch Tatort and knit and enjoy the comfort of my warm and dry living room. :D
