I would definitely expect low numbers in attendance’s, for both World Cup and Olympics.
Many die hards will still come though, especially for World Cup.

Took me about 7 years to go 🙄
Well worth the visit though.
Just book yourself in, and be prepared for airport style security.

Oh yes sir. We got a Mexican Indian, how’d that be?
Actually I’m Dutch Irish. My father was from Wales.

Rumour says you killed a man Billy.
Yeah Billy, what did you kill him for?
He called me Mr. Poopy Pants.

That would be the reality right.
I saw it announced a few days ago. Apparently both Lou Diamond Phillips and Kiether Sutherland will be worked into the story somehow. It’ll be based around Doc’s journal that he kept.

Wow. Really. Had no idea it’d been there so long. They do make an awesome Currywurst.
Steglitz also has my favourite Halbes Hänchen place. Under the bridge next to the S-Bahn Rathaus Steglitz.
Oh the 282. Had forgotten that bus. Caught it umpteen times though.
Ah, memories. That was 10 years ago🫣

Oh wow.
I think it’s a Lidl. But either way, yes, horrible depressing place.
Had no idea there was a big Edeka down there. I always used the small one on Steglitzer Damm. It did have an awesome Currywurst stall next door which made it worth the visit.

WTF?
Both films rocked.
That song was for YG2.
I once read, Emilio Esteves got the idea for the film listening to Bon Jovi’s, Dead or Alive. Hence they asked him to write a song for part 2.
Anyway, I’m looking forward to the 3rd instalment.

Ah. Know it well.
I was in the big building overlooking Südende S-Bahn, just a stones throw away.
It’s a nice area, as long as you’re not on a main road.
comment in response to

That sounds much more civilised. Especially if not on a main road.
The roof one I lived in was on Steglitzer Damm, maybe you know it. Was sooooo noisy. From about 5am every morning. So couldn’t even open the windows.
Horrible.
Now in the Hinterhaus so it’s lovely and quiet at least.

Lived in one my first two years here, with massive west facing windows. Neubau too so thin walls.
That really was unbearable in the summer.
Lived in Spain previously, and even that was more bearable.

TBH, we never minded doing it. Good way to get to know your neighbours.
Unfortunately, too many would take the biscuit and not collect their packages for weeks. And in a 65msq apartment, you really don’t want other people’s packages hanging around.

Oh my god. Don’t.
We served as the DHL Paketshop for so many years. We just ignore the bell now unless we’re expecting something.
Yes, ground floors do suck in certain respects. But we do at least have the whole garden to ourselves.

I use the same trick. Have the added problem though, that I’m on the ground floor, so very little air movement, and the buildings boiler system is directly under my room. So never gets lower than 24, regardless of time of year. Kinda hot used to it now though.

Used to blast this one out back in my cafe Del Mar DJing days. Great track.
This one was always thrown in too….

Yeah. Reckon she might have pocketed a few quid from the whole shitshow.

Ah. When he spent £65m on some drawings of a bridge?
His buffoonery was always only a mask to hide his ineptitude and corruption.
Wretched man 😣

Do not under any circumstances, give the Orange fascist what he wants.

The strawberries were sacrificed to prevent any poor unsuspecting local from eating too much fibre.
Must have prevented a couple of dozen people from unnecessarily getting the shits, which I got instead.
I took one for the team 😎

Blonde hair.

I’m a white supremacists wet dream in the flesh 🤣
That must have been nice. Can’t beat fresh from the fields.

Mate. I went strawberry picking for a few days way way back to make some money.
Most back breaking work I’ve ever done.
Only made 9 quid too, probably because me and my mate were too busy eating them and squashing them in each others heads 😅

Dunno.
Don’t think Thatcher did a whole lot of talking with the Argentinians in 82.
She wasn’t in the mood to negotiate with Iranian hostage takers either.
Though she did talk with the IRA, despite always denying it.

14.6% of gross income goes to health insurance.
Not sure how that compares to the UK.
There definitely seems to be a better service here than the UK, though it’s far from perfect.
comment in response to
post
It works in Germany.
It’s not private health insurance, rather state run through insurance companies. You pay based on earnings, so the higher earners bear the brunt of the costs.
It’s not an ideal model but does provide a better health system to the NHS.
I guess no model is perfect though.

I moved here from the southernmost point of Europe, Tarifa in Spain. Was always up into the mid 30’s all summer. Loved it.
But here, it’s unbearable for me. The air is completely still and the humidity is nasty.
Coming from the South though, you might be ok with it 🤞

Nah. It will get uncomfortably hot at some point. But it’s always short lived. Has reached 36-38 degrees C every summer I’ve been here which is 10 years.
