Pre-Prandial...

Even though I am in deepest Bavaria it somehow seems like England this morning. It is very autumnal outside the last of the leaves are coming down and there's something English about the soggy sky and the rustling leaves. Listened a bit to Radio 4 online, have just put the finishing touches to the Sunday dinner - pork in apple sauce, with sprouts and potatoes - and now I could just do with a stroll up the road with my dad for a pre-prandial pint...

Do people in England still do that sort of thing?? They are probably all sat in front of their home entertainment centres having a microwaved Thai curry...

Us expats are probably more English that English, ours was roast pork this weekend too.

MMmmm...the Germans find it very strange that we have apple sauce with our pork...but when they try it - and it is really NOT easy to get them to try - they think it's great!
