ABOUT TO START RELEASING GERMAN VIDEO FILMS

I think I've already covered most of Eastern Germany certainly in the archives section but there remain quite a few visits to what had been the Federal Republic and of course this was very much Duewag country alhoughh the was so much more that just them to see and I can recall some magical trips to Germany with Mandy in the 1990s which I look forwards to reliving over the coming week. We start though with some film taken by our friend Timm Budd around 1990 and this is a nice mixture which also coinclides some buses and trains in addition to the trams.

Last night was probably the all time worst for sleeping, I eventually drifted off after 5am and then didnt wake until 10am but on the whiole don't feel that bad as after all I'm not exactly consuming that much energy other than a anthropological study of Lidl's in Northwich this afternoon although i must admit to picking up some cheap chocolate much in the way we used to dio using up surplus cirrency i the eastern bloc etc. I'm still spot on with the leg exercises 4 times a day and the sewlling seems to gave gone down about another inch and the surgical stockings are getting lose even on the operated leg. We had Skypes with Max in New Zealand and then Barb on Vancouver Island last night. I must find out how my sister is getting on with the decorating and building work on their bungalow.

The weather has been typically foul for a bank holiday weekend but not going out much I can'r say its had much impact on us. its Wednesday that I have the staples taken out of my knee and Mandy goes along to the cottage hospital for a look at the tear duct problem. Thats so far seems to be the hilitess of the week. We got the latest edition of Lonely planet Colombia today the only post as ever through from Amazon. The pile of EBay auction items is starting to move now I'll try and list more stuff to keep it going remember some great bargains amongst the photos and the Southdown Coach Blanket remain free of offers just waiting to be given a good home,

Lets then go for Sussex photos
