[ernest]

So after months of not looking forward to Milan, at the 11th hour dh work change of plan - we're going to Munich. I am really pleased about change of plan, but a bit shocked it's so sudden - dh starting there 1st March.

so - having baby in Munich - good? Hospitals good?

We are considering the Munich International school to the south of the city - anyone know if any good/ or how it compares with the Bavarian IS to the North? Or are state school really really fab and seriously worth considering?

Thinking of Solln/Pullach/something else beginning with P all in south . these any good or any other recommended areas for families on pub. transport network?

Anything else I should know?

I've heard the accent is mad - is this similar at all to Swiss German? or just a mad accent rather than weird dialect?

ach mei, lots of British women and babies settling in Munich these days by the sounds of things. Grüß Gott everyone!

Absolutely ks, got to have a dirndl. Find them quite flattering really, but you'd look a total noddy wearing one in Berlin.

Hope you like it there loulou. Easter is a nice time to move

Reminds me we haven't had Spätzele for a while. Love Spätzele.
