Re: Christmas fairy lights
By some coincidence I have noticed quite a lot more multicoloured lights around our estate so far this year, even though they are mostly of the newer LED type.

I've only been to one - Munich. It's a fabulous city anyway, with or without the market.
Re: Christmas fairy lights
My daughter has always wanted to visit a German Christmas market so thanks for the recommendation.

Bavarians are lovely people too; even if you're not a German speaker you'll find they're very happy to show off their (usually very good) English, and certainly back when I visited they loved the English too.
I seem to recall the market is near the beautiful Frauenkirche and if you want 20th century history, the Marienplatz - where Hitler got run out of town in 1923 is nearby too :roflmao: ('Beer Hall Putsch')
One other recommendation - don't go there during Oktoberfest unless you love the company of pissed Brits and Aussies.

No way jose...
It's certainly something to plan for as and when so thank you for the information and no, I don't speak German so it's a relief that I would not have to rely on Basil Fawlty-type attempted communication!

I love the word 'bog, but my mother - who came across distinctly Hyacinth Bucket (it's Bouquet) at times - used to tell me off for saying it. :shrug:
'Don't be so uncouth!'
Uncouth, moi? :ohmy:
