Abendschule
I have had a long day today my friends, a full day expanding Siemens' share of the Water Technologies market followed by a 2 hour night school (Abendschule) lesson in German. But I survive.
The office is quiet at the moment with everyone at trade fairs, I am like cinderella, unable to go to the ball. I like to think I am being given a greater responsibility manning the fort back at base haha. I had to approve a CD cover before printing today as there was no-one else to do it. I better not let the power go to my head!
Deutsch school is good, learning lots of grammar which I need. The teacher is called Heide (should have been Heidi but her father spelt it wrong at the name registration office - true story!) and she is cool. I am the only English person and all the instructions are in German but I cope. I now have homework to do, thought I had escaped that, apparently not :(
