Well, no bikes in this, but since Leo posted one with only a pic of a delivery bike with muffs, I supose I can post a few pics.

Well I arrived at my home town (of about 6000 people) for the weekend to find that the "Biggest Country and Western" festival in the UK was being held there! 14,000 People last year, they were camping everywhere.

The first office block built in Germany, by the Borsig Brothers, who were big industrialists trains etc etc. Don,t know how the bombers missed this one? Berlin is full of strange combinations of old buildings surounded by glass monsters.

Interesting, they kept the frontage of the Railway Sheds, but it is a big steel and glass shopping arcade behind.

Only the Germans could do this.
