Can't Say Strawberry

In this edition of German Wednesday… SNOW!

Yup, it’s still here, but it’s not as fun as it was earlier in the week because instead of being squishy and entertaining to make tracks in, it’s all iced over and rubbish for clumsy people to walk over. Also am terrified to wear high boots that were bought for the cold weather because they have heels; I can barely make it to school without falling in flats!

Germany’s attitude to snow is a lot more relaxed than the general British attitude, probably because they’re far more used to it. School hasn’t been closed at all, and public transport seems to suffer only minor disruptions… except for this morning when my U-Bahn was 20 MINUTES LATE. Pretty standard with U.K transport, but it must be some sort of sin here in Germany, where being late seems to be tantamount to spitting in someone’s face!

So I’m all bundled up in my room listening to a bit of Peter Fox, dreading when I have to face the cold to get to my sewing course…
