You know you're so mystifying, can't believe it's true (The Kinks)


Wie geht's?

The British love to shoot themselves in the foot, right?

One word - Brexit.

Another couple of words: Sunderland, Nissan.

Great story from The Guardian about a city who voted 61% to leave the EU but who are faced with Nissan abandoning them as a result. A must read. What the heckfire????

As we visited the beautiful city of Vienna, Jacky and I wondered why of why the UK would want to turn its back on being connected to such a wonderful city. 

It's clean, well looked after, the people are pleasant and helpful, the buildings are amazingly well preserved. Clearly austerity measures aren't in place here.

For us, it's brain dead stuff - the British mentality to withdraw into its own island and make it infinitely harder for themselves is utterly bizarre.

I don't get it!

Oh, promises, promises, my kind of promises can lead to joy and hope and love (Bacharach/David)


Wie geht's?

Today, we're off to Vienna to see the Spanish Riding School. 

About six years ago, I'd promised the LOML that we'd go as a way of providing a goal, something to look forward to, while she went through her treatments.

Time to deliver on that promise.
