Montelovesco Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 This is - especially in times like these - completely off topic. But today my wife was elected as major in our (population 40k) hometown. A one year battle for votes came to an end today. I am sooo proud. Had to let this out. Sorry for bothering. Best - and grounded, too - wishes from Bavaria. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Montelovesco Posted March 30, 2020 Author Share Posted March 30, 2020 Folks, thank to all of you for the warm messages - I will pass them on. And yes, it is mayor and not major (that would make me minor, I guess...). She will start her office/duty/job (?) in May, and we all hope that the shutdown will be shutdown until then. Hope all of you are good (the news from the States are frightening...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rugby1970 Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 I met a German girl in England who was going to school in France.... No, that's just nonsense. I married a a beautiful blond haired, blued eyed girl that was born in Germany 40 years ago yesterday. Her mother was born in Lubben (formerly East Germany) and her father was born in Tittling (Bavaria, as you know). We have had many, many family visitors over the years and it has always been my ambition to visit Germany especially Bavaria. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gino Posted March 31, 2020 Share Posted March 31, 2020 Hof has always been the first place in the free world for us West-Berliners after passing through East German territory for like five hours... My wife and I like Frankonia (is that Franken in English??) very much and spent many weekends there. Good to know a Hamerite's wife is in charge there now!

We discussed this, btw, a few years a ago as a location for the Europen HFC meeting we did in 2014, then in Frankfurt. Maybe we should come back to the plan when this Corona BS is over... I gues the mayor would be willing to give us an official welcome on behalf of the city... :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
