Linzer weather was lovely here too, especially yesterday. I got a feeling this is about it, at least for us Nordlichter up here. But the entire last week was just great, I feel this was a worthy end to a summer which got to be one of the worst summers.
admylin they have emphasised the part without commentary when they show the Wiederholung of both parts, but for me it's too late I won't watch it, however for the ones interested and able to record it might be something to keep in mind.
cake you seem to have adventures in your restaurant and I hear working in Gastronomie can be quite hard, real Knochenarbeit, and yet you come across as managing it all well.
Must be nice to drive over to the Dutch. How long of a drive is it for you until you reach a town or city you like to spend your day in?
Oh and in regards to drivers and bad reputation, I don't think it is a Dutch-German thing across the country though, I assume it's more a case of complaining about whoever is next door neighbour and then doesn't drive to standard whatever that's supposed to be here in Hamburg the bad ones are the Pinnebergers and they have a PI on their plate, so that gets translated to Provinzidioten 
And the Dutch here, don't seem to bother anyone, no-one talks about them.
Nutella I am sorry to hear about the midwife search adventures...I never had one, I chose to do my own thing, I believe someone here mentioned something slightly similar. Even though it was my first child, I myself have a profession where I felt I knew enough and the rest was discussed with doctor and the nurse in the practice. The doctor I chose was bi-lingual and had medical degrees from Germany and the U.S. and was used to have "international" patients, so I didn't want to deal with the midwives, as I was annoyed about the typical German grumpiness and during pregnancy I was more emotional and sensitive, so didn't want that around me.
In the hospital after birth I was approached by a nurse/midwife who was there the entire weekend I was there and she was the one who assisted during c-section and took care of our baby and got along with my at-the-time-husband, so she heard I don't have a midwife and asked if we would like her to come and visit. So because we liked her and got along and she spoke good English, we agreed. She ended up visiting twice as I didn't need her anymore.
Unfortunately there are some ways and attitudes which could be said are typical of Germans, I've mentioned this before I think, and this is not BesserWessie behaviour even if some East Germans like to think that, it is general German attitude with exceptions to the rule, as everywhere.
awesome you are in Berlin. That city and and the Berliners themselves have such a rough and coarse attitude I am the few times I was there really taken back by their attitude.
And even though it is so international and so much coming and going I cannot believe how rough it is there.
And I think the Berliners, regardless of West or East, truly need to get used-to
to the Austrians out there. Would you say it is similar or different in Austria, keeping in mind the small town/city differences, which are apparent here as well and cake has mentioned thankfully very good experiences.
