well the Germans being efficient people have great cycle paths and clear them fast. The snow was deep but not so deep you could not cycle but it was much harder. I just had to watch the down hill cycling as it was a bit tricky. Prime you sound like you have a great wife who looks after you.. ;)


My son and his family live in Uettingen, Germany. It is a quaint village in Bavaria, which is not far from Wurzburg. He married his German bride 25 years ago. Uettingen is her hometown. We love visiting them, however it is getting more and more expensive and complicated for us to do that between airfare and medical issues/equipment for my wife. She uses oxygen 100% of the time. On the plus side, we never have to worry about logging while we are there.

We look after each other. She is a great wife. Maybe that's the reason we have managed to stay married for 48 years. Of the two of us, she is the better person.

I remember as a young soldier we used to go skiing in Bavaria and we called it eX Snow Queen( they liked to name everything). we had a ski hut/lodge which the Regiment rented and we lived there. I enjoyed the Down hill skiing but also the Langlauf cross country skiing.. there were routes to follow and we went from Cafe to Cafe and got Drunk on Glühwein ;D. they stopped it after a guy had an accident on the Ski slope, this guy used to just fly down the slopes and shout , "BANZIE".. no joke. the slopes were colour coded to show the difficulty and this Guy was drunk and just went for it on a difficult slope i think it was colour code RED. anyway he broke a leg so the instructor got into trouble( we had our own guys as instructors) and we then had to behave ourselves. Yes Prime..i have good memories of the Girls there too...lots of Rich girls skiing with Mummy and Daddy and they loved to party with us. Great Times.
well Prime i live near HANNOVER and feel free to give me a shout if you are over.

was planning to do legs today but i will take today off because i feel it today after my chest+back workouts..good fatigue. I will do an Ab workout and go for a walk tonight to stretch off my legs and lower back and tomorrow i will Squat hard and Pre Exhaust my Quads and Hams. i think you have to listen to your body and take a rest when you need it. This is not being lazy and at 46 i know and feel when i need to take a Day off.My older son is laughing at me now as he is packing his Gym Bag to go and Train...he tells me there are some nice Girls where he trains... ;)

well you know i´m a Scot..and was in the British Army. When i joined it was still the cold war time and a lot of us got sent to BAOR ( British Army of the Rheine). The US Army were more in the South of Germany but i did work with them now and again. My Brother was in Germany too. I served :
1985 till 1989 Royal Artillery
1989 till 1995 Royal Corps of Signals

The Germans did do national service as we used to do years ago in the UK. I think the Germans had to do 9 months service if they got called up, have to ask my Brother in law as he did it..he was in the German Air Force.

Yes they will turn from domesticated cats into big wild ones.  Plus I wouldn't be able to sleep if I didn't feed them.  It would keep me up all night feeling terrible.  I bought them chicken breast today because I give them that a couple of times a week.

Yes I find it fills them up and makes them very content.  I do spoil my pets.  Glad it's warmer for you though.   :)
