Greetings from England.

Hi hallo - Guten Tag - where are you in England (I still do not understand, when people from the UK say England and when do they say UK)...at least I understand, that England is not Scotland and not Wales.....think I am in England, too.:queen:

Gruss Gott, Mein Vater komst aus Osterrich, Klagenfurt.

And my German is AWFUL ... LOL

I am just South of London. Where are you ?


To sum it up :

British by birth - English by grace of God.

Da war ich auch noch nie - never been there!

And my German is AWFUL ... LOL

Donīt worry - mine, too!!! :razz:

I am just South of London. Where are you ?

In a tiny little village called Micheldever - near Winchester.

To sum it up :

British by birth - English by grace of God.

Well - ehm - ok - I fully, completely, totally understand!! Yes!

I remember a Swedish tour guide nearly being killed by the only Scotsman in our group when she pointed out the "English embassy" in Stockholm. :big grin:

Welcome stranger. :shock:I know that you may know quite a few people here, but this place is also inhabited by people who have no clue who you are, but want to know you!

So more than "Hi All, I'm using my flash!" would be most welcome! :goodvibes: :big grin:

Oh well yes - I am not good in introducing myself....I am a slightly confused, nearly always totally stressed out German - partly living in UK - partly living in Northern Germany (the famous town of Kiel!!). Like abstract and experimental photography...during the last year my focus was on macros...using an old bellow and enlarging lenses from Rodenstock and Schneider-Kreuznach (and I still did not produce one single acceptable shot with this damn flash :irked:).

Jepp - with the well known "German efficiency" :o
It was not my fault that the damn bus stopped at the wrong station.
