No news -- no news AT ALL

Seems that at the moment there is so little happening here (with everybody still gone for holidays), the newspapers have SERIOUS problems filling their pages.

Headline in the provincial newspaper some old guy was reading on the train when I went to work:

"Fish Attack At Bathing Lake! Little Boy's Toe Bitten!"

Follows a colour picture of some ugly whingy seven-year-old brat sitting on a meadow in his bathing trunks showing his foot, which to me looks perfectly healthy, and a long-ass article.

Because some kid went swimming and fish nibbled on its toes! That is NEWS in early September in rural Bavaria!!

In other news, Vernon Dursley is running for parliament in Munich. Pictorial proof later, when I'm at home at my computer and can upload pictures.-

In the meanwhile, Vernon Dursley is running for parliament here in Munich, as I said:



Funnily enough, he seems to be using a different name.-

Note the incredibly bad photoshopping of that candidate together with his party's new great white hope, the relatively recently appointed minister of economy. I would bet that slick shark would never have the time of day of such a measly local candidate, he's faaaaaaar too important. (Eurgh!) Of course, they're both from that party which Has Always Been Elected In Bavaria, but they should look to Japan, tremble, and stop doing content-free electioneering, and incredibly bad DTP...
