The first full day in Berlin started with a logic puzzle, which, if I were looking for stereotypes, I would have expected in Germany. To operate the shower, there were three dials pointing to six o’clock. The puzzle was to work out the times to set the dials so that the water would come out … Continue reading / view photos Berlin – first steps

It may be a coincidence, or a hint about the new series, or something completely different! (I’m not sure … Continue reading / view photos Bodyguard in Archway
