    I was in Köln, Schwerin and Berlin on a school tour back in 2001. I absolutely loved it!

    The main thing I loved was being able to go into a music shop and buy Rammstein, Megaherz and Oomph CDs straight off the shelf. Not a hope of even getting Rammstein CDs here off the shelf at that stage :D

    Lived and worked in Germany for two years and really liked it. I was in Koln for the carnival - nuts experience! :eek:;):cool:

    WAs telling the lady behind the bar in a club over there that they should sell the ole cigars there as they didn't have the ban.

    I would say she was more interested in your pink cigar! :pac:

    Paris is a sh!thole apart from the Eiffel Tower which was genuinely an amazing feat of engineering to me, Berlin is what you want.

    Hmmm, one of the 19th centuries planned cities versus a hodge podge of communist and capitalist buildings in one of Europe's largest bomb sites. I think this is taking the WWII love toooooo far;).

    Drunk posting will get you into trouble! And yes i will when the time is right bhaha!

    That is a beautiful city and one which, IMO, beats the pants off Munich.

    I dunno how many cars have crashed into that roundabout! They just go straight through it instead!

    I like that one too when the GoSafe van and crazy truckers aren't on it. :pac:

    One of the best roads in the country IMO is the stretch between Laragh and Rathdrum. Try that in a yank tank in the wet! :eek:;):cool:

    Great weekend in Mondello, some really nice cars out in the historics, and only a small bit of contact as usual in the touring cars....

    For a tenner in the Sunday is a great day out.

    Now to get the racecar finished and get out for some of these weekends as a driver!

    I was in Berlin for a weekend, boring kip of a place

    :eek: Srsly?! I feckin' LOVE Berlin - I'd move there in a flash if I knew more German! Any city that has a statue of Rob Halford (of Judas Priest) inside a pub run by Germanys answer to Rob Halford can't be a bad thing. But then again, I'm a bit of a metalhead, and these things impress me :D
    ... and Oomph

    I think I saw them a few years ago at NovaRock. Think they were all dressed in white, must relocate the t-shirt to confirm!

    I was in Cologne years ago, just remember it being very gothic-looking.

    The white DC2 was her stablemate at the time.

    I was in cologne in 1995, myself and my brother were in the cathedral, we were thrown out because Michael Jackson was there and was having a look around.

    Ditto. Almost did it earlier in the year. Definitely thinking about. Loads of them being off loaded of late.

    Good beer, a quite interesting city and there's a restaurant called "Asterix" run by the students in the city. If you ever down there, call in there. Good cheap food and an interesting athmosphere.

    I don't generally go Jap but I reckon it's probably the cheapest route in to track cars. Had a quick gander on DD and see there's Skylines going for a couple of grand. I realise they are probably junkers but they would just be for trashing anyhow. Would rather an M3 / M5 but ain't got the wonga and it would hurt me to destroy one!
