Blog: Ich Gehen Zum Berlin!

Hoorah! At last another chance to inflict my 20 years out of date sub-'O' Level German on an unsuspecting nation! Me and The Wings On My Aircraft are flying off to BERLIN for a Sophisticated Mini-Break tonight, and I am VERY much looking forward to it. We bought the Rough Guide last week, and I got EXCITED just reading through the history of The Wall coming down, and The October Revolution, and all that stuff. Hey! I was there! Well, okay, I was a student in Leicester watching it on telly, but still - I distinctly remember there being a costumed three legged pub crawl, at which I OFFICIATED, and a couple of Actual Germans taking part, DRESSED as the wall. Somebody had written "We are all Berliners now" on it, and goodness me just thinking about that brings a MANLY TEAR to my eye even now, so you can imagine what it was like at the time. So yes, I'm REALLY looking forward to seeing where it all happened, also the super-posh hotel and LOUNGING around.

See you next week kids!
