is only complete with the right kind of accessories.
To wit: matching dress and jacket, colour co-ordinated socks, a kuksa around the neck, and a beer in one hand. And the pièce de résistance for any ensemble: the right bag.

The Usurper Will not Go Unchallenged
Prince Max to the right: the smaller the prince, the more obvious the sign, apparently.

First Day of School
When German children have their first day of primary school they get a Schultüte, a paper cone filled with sweets to sweeten the start of the serious side of life.

Bonus information: A toilet seat in German is a Klobrille = literally “toilet spectacles”.

The Wachenburg is only 100 years old, it was built between 1907 and 1928. The rain gutters were done by my grandfather who was a plumber and tinner by profession.

I Needed a Distraction.
It worked. Word!

As hard as I tried I couldn’t see more, not even during the break. After class I did a bit of recon and yes, I found more of the words, the whole wall, a little hut on a flat roof and – a poem. Only page one, though.
