I remember the trip home 4 years ago. The sun was about to go down, still very hot, so I was driving home with the convertible top down on country roads only (not using the Autobahn).
Some time I noticed that Gilles with his beautiful Rometsch had caught up behind me. We both let our cars really go, and it was much fun for many miles (until I had to visit the gas station and Gilles disappeared in the countryside)...

Well that is great... but I have learned that 7-10 days out, you have a better chance of the actual weather being the opposite of what is forecast... But that is US weather, not German weather..... _________________ John Henry

That even sounds good for you too. As I have heard, you haven't seen the sun during the past 6 month when you was living in your garage...
