I am on my third change of clothes today, for example!<br /><br />Good luck with your French and German studies, and be assured that your English is far from broken! I must say that it has been a baptism of fire Vanessahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11847145282522572183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4026359168982468373.post-61637767689035024212015-07-22T18:47:06.891+01:002015-07-22T18:47:06.891+01:00Hi Blacknall,

Business seems to be picking up, even if this job is not a moneyspinner as such. <br /><br />I have just resigned myself to the crazy heat - there is no alternative but to accept that limp and sticky is simply going to be one's permanent state. <br /><br />Hope you're not too hot where you are!Vanessahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11847145282522572183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4026359168982468373.post-3553687423391691312015-07-20T22:36:44.941+01:002015-07-20T22:36:44.941+01:00Safe journey, Vanessa.

Hope it does not get too hot, given you have to work. <br /><br />Looking forward to posts later on about any events along the way.<br /><br />Sorry about my broken English, I am now totally hooked on Duolingo to strengthen my rusty skills in French and even worse comtetence in German. It is fun to see I could get quicly to level 7 and 6 respectively.

Sadly I am nowhere near Berlin this month - Wuppertal was the most northerly point today. <br /><br />What an amazing coincidence about bumping into Alain, and I am chuffed that he would have remembered me, let along (by inference) said nice things! I am very touched and have fond memories both of our meeting in April and of that visitVanessahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11847145282522572183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4026359168982468373.post-83654831351214313262015-07-07T17:54:50.243+01:002015-07-07T17:54:50.243+01:00Thanks, Carol, much appreciated!Thanks, Carol, much appreciated!Vanessahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11847145282522572183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4026359168982468373.post-16601436169478581502015-07-07T17:52:17.067+01:002015-07-07T17:52:17.067+01:00Hi Tara,

If you can have a seam of fodder, I mean.<br /><br />I had a very satisfactory bus ride today in fact, that didn't even cost me anything - got a free transport pass from the hotel - and which deposited me right by where my meeting was!<br /><br />Not sure I am going to be doing any bopping as Vanessahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11847145282522572183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4026359168982468373.post-63623691374776467842015-07-07T17:40:53.373+01:002015-07-07T17:40:53.373+01:00Thanks, Undina, Max is enjoying himself so far. ;)...Thanks, Undina, Max is enjoying himself so far. ;)Vanessahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11847145282522572183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4026359168982468373.post-81294066603791757872015-07-07T17:33:08.472+01:002015-07-07T17:33:08.472+01:00Hi Lindaloo,

It was ever thus in my field though. I am mostly seeing the job as CPD, with not having been abroad for work for so long. A chance to get back in the saddle, if you will, with a few nice German beers along the way. :)Vanessahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11847145282522572183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4026359168982468373.post-84058920834681210372015-07-07T17:25:14.378+01:002015-07-07T17:25:14.378+01:00Hi Birgit,
