    We've only recently returned from a cruise on the Rhine and the guide said that Cologne is one of the best Christmas market towns. :dbgrtmb:

        @shiney that was a fun watch!

        You know Christmas is on it's way when - you read a thread like this and realize that you really best get on with putting together a spreadsheet to record all the books you got for the grandkids because one year, you duplicated a book- :oopss:

        Up to line 62 right now and still going … good excuse for making that boo... she says...:heehee:
