This is the rather soggy view from our living room tonight.

We were lucky enough to get a lift back to Munich from Agatharied this afternoon. Now, I am a bad car passenger at the best of times - I am the first to admit it. Apart from a couple of moments when our super competent driver didn't use his windscreen wipers when I would have done, my fear came from a feeling that there just didn't seem to be enough room for the cars in the road lanes. Everything seemed really close - too close for comfort. I didn't like it, so I kept my gaze firmly averted.

On an unrelated topic, my pal N's baby is on its way as I write!
