Listening and smiling!!

A very funny thing happened yesterday morning. Roger and I were waiting in line at the railway station in Schopfheim to renew our monthly rail ticket. The German gentleman in front of us decided to have a conversation and tell us his problem of trying to book a train ticket on-line! He had no idea we were English and could not understand a word he said!! We answered ja and nein and laughed at the appropriate times. He would turn around, wait patiently in line, then speak to us again. We got away with it, but for how long!! And yes, we did miss the train by 15 seconds. Too many people in line. Oh well, the sun is shining here, so all is right with the world!
