It is all obvious or trivial except…

 

 

How odd

Also, it occurred to me that going to Germany and not doing much other than eating sausages and drinking beer was a bit one-dimensional, lacking imagination as it were.

Is there anything else to do in Germany?

    You could start a photographic record of all those solar panel arrays which will shortly be falling into ruin and then be dismantled. You could call it, “Now the Sun’s Gone Cold”.

    How about a night at the opera?

    One can always eat Turkish food and drink beer instead.

    One of my favourite dishes was strammer max which you should be able to get in that part of Germany.

    Also, take the train to Celle, a lovely town with loads of history. It’s only about an hour from where you are . The schloss and old SS kaserne are worth seeing now most of the Brits have left.

    it all depends on how much of a pleb you are. We know that you have no cultural interests, so why bother to ask the question? You are a pleb. Drink your beer; eat your sausages; visit the gay torture bar and be happy.

    FKK?
    Germany seems to have f**ked the rest of Europe so might as well stick with the program.

    Germany has some great historic places to visit, where you can eat sausages and drink beer.

    When the immigration staff enquire of you, “Occupation?” you can reply, “No; just visiting…”

    7 SMFS: my first thought, but then I realised it wouldn’t, by definition, be done in Germany.

    Given the mobility of the border over time, it might be said that an invasion of Poland could be done in Germany.

    On that basis, even an invasion of Russia could now be said to be achievable in Germany.

    Mustn’t give them any ideas, tho’…

    “Is there anything else to be done in Germany?”

    Apparently not:
