    BBc iplayer abroad

    I know this has came up from time to time and I've never given it much attention until I've found myself out here in Germany.

    I installed onspeed. As it's servers are UK based iPlayer works a charm now.


    As for Berlin, it 23 degrees when I arrived this morning, and there's lots of green. I can tell I'm going to need a car I'm not exactly in the city...

          Just an observation driven out of pure determination that I shall not be defeated by the machine.


          I think I've found a good source of apartments,

          I'm going to need a car I know, 40 minutes outside the city, so do I drive out to Germany or not... ugh


          Oh and one final observation, I think I'll need to learn some German -

            **** me, really? Surely Japanese would be better?
            Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

              Really, the English is not working that well out here in the sticks -

                Doesn't seem to work that well in London either Watch out, you're in the east of Germany now where they still distrust foreigners If anyone has a go at you, just reply 'Lech mich.'
