Hi mate, got here a few weeks ago. Been quite busy since thanks to my post being gapped for a while. New boss nice bloke but he's off soon, never met the replacement.
Loving Germany but prefered Muenster to Hohne, just more to do and I just know that when she gets here the wife is going to b!tch about the weather until the summer.
Learning quick on the german front without lessons so far. Memorised the phrase 'Only been in Germany for a few weeks, but speak slow' at which point most speak english if they can anyway. I spent 5 years in France and came away fluent so I want to learn as much german as poss.
The food here is excellent (hence the diet) and I am not sure i can drink english beer again. I am obviously going to try and remain on the continent if I can but the army being the army tends to mess people about. (if you didnt have a sense of humour you shouldent have joined, etc, etc!)
I am driving back to UK on Friday and will be passing by your area if you fancy meeting for a Braty or something. I'll be stopping somewhere around there anyways for a rest stop.
