Football Feuds
Like all feuds between different football clubs the one between Mannheim Waldhof and 1. FC Kaiserslautern is really a silly state of affairs, except possibly for the fan clubs involved. The two clubs are barely 60km apart and after a few unfortunate incidents in the 1980 they have been sworn enemies. The police has to work overtime every time the two clubs play against each other to keep the “fans” (fanatics!) apart and the destruction in the vicinity of the stadions to a minimum.

Alt Heidelberg, du feine
Thanks to its ruined castle (thank you, France!) Heidelberg has been a tourist attraction for several hundreds of years. It became particularly popular during the Romantic era and many poets used it as inspiration for their writings. Since then it has never been unpopular and … Continue reading Alt Heidelberg, du feine
Memories
No hopscotch to be seen. But lots of hopscotch memories. This is the school yard of my primary school. When I was there there it was just a yard, no jungle gym, wooden or otherwise, just bare concrete. We enjoyed our breaks nevertheless. I remember marking hopscotch outlines on the ground and hopping to our heart’s content.
