Back in Germany - 6 weeks now…
It certainly has not been the best 6 weeks and that includes 2 weeks in India (see previous post). I do not know where to start, it is basically a big moan.
The reception from our friends was great. Arrived home from the airport to find the house in order, a foot high post waiting in the kitchen (mainly bills of course). Went out in the garden to find out a tent had been erected and table and BBQ and and and had been set up.
I did not have time to ask myself what was going out that the first friend and neighbour turned up through our secret passage through the hedge at the end of our gardens. With a big smile on his face, he announced that everyone was turning up at 12 for a BBQ and drinks.
No time for a shower or unpack, so the alternative was to have a first beer. It was not long before they all turned up, each one with drinks or food. No need to say that most of us ended up in various degrees of inebriation. I guess it started where we left off almost 3 years ago.
It was pleasant enough and the bestway to ignore jetlag.
It went downwards from then on. I will not rave and pant about the office (it is not appropriate on Facebook) , but basically I am not sure why it was so imperative that I got back. Six weeks later, I am still asking myself the same question.
In the meantime I had to get myself a car and picked the little Mini Cooper. Sure I want something bigger and with at least 150HP but it will do for the time being. In fact I quite like it and I defy most to catch me around town.



So what has changed in Germany over the past alomost 3 years? Basically nothing as far as I can see.
