Marianne, I think that your message about PG Wodehouse was addressed to Hugh.
Anyway, I know about him and respect him and like very much his English humour.

... for being such a attentive member!! Unfortunately I've not been travelling - I'm just very busy (job-related + private). But, strictly speaking, I had 3 days off last week and spend it helping my cousin in Düsseldorf who has a market stand (flowers) on the 'Carlsplatz'.
I hope you are doing well and I wish you a nice Advent season.
Now I shall never be able to visit a sex museum|!!!

I am just at the age when presently i will have leisure if not youth to visit all these exotic Dutch attractions. Now it would be so difficult to watch out for the watchers giggling at my behaviour that i must depend on this description which is excellent.

Do you have a picture of the chicken thief statue in the chicken market behind the cathedral?
I starved for five hours awaiting a train near this Cathedral because we only had Belgian money in 1961 on my very first time out of Ireland.
To twist the words of the Heidelberg song, truly i lost my heart (for a little while) in Aachen
