Lemons and Bridges

 

 


Walking back home the other day I came across 'Lemon Jetta' (I know it should be Jette Helmut but then they won't pronouce it right!) She has a lucky index finger on her left (or is it her right) hand, you touch it for luck (and wear all the coating off!)

Then there were good reflections in the bridge over the canal.

Getting towed away - German style!

 

 

 

 


Needs no explanation, costs a pretty penny (Euro) to get it back again!!

Snazzy eh?

 


They have it all worked out, these Germans! The one escalator goes up AND down, not at the same time, silly, but it can change directions, saves having to have two escalators. As you walk toward it it starts up, and if anyone is coming down, you have to wait till they are down (of course) then you can go up. OK? Any questions?

Open day continued

 

 

 

 


It is all very beautiful, and obviously a very popular place to come on a Saturday afternoon, twice a year.

Inside the town hall

 

 

 

 


Not a bad place for a 'get together!'

Bucks Night, German style!

 

 

 


Looking out of the townhall window we came upon this scene. Apparently the bloke in orange with the broom is the bridegroom and his friends have thrown stuff (?bottletops) all over the place, he has to sweep it all up. Sounds harmless enough, I wonder what happens then!!!!
