Mannheim

Excellent start to 12 Magenta/Peter Martin Jakob concerts this month in Germany... at Capitol, Mannheim...

Lovely space to sing in, enthusiastic audience, lots of CDs and songbooks sold... and even a cricket tea-towel, would you believe it?!

Marvellous all round; and an English cricket umpire/scorer/coach there too.... he keeps cricket going in this region of Germany.

This morning we had breakfast surrounded by an 80s (well, and still going) rock band, and their entourage, whose name I did not catch... they said they were going to somewhere in the GDR in a couple of days... still stuck in the 80s, it seems!

Now we're in Langenau awaiting another glorious Christmas evening...
