Bon Bonn

We've received a lot of post this last week from people saying that we are being too mean to Bonn. That we are not giving the new location a decent chance. I accept that this may be the case. I will speak personally with the editors involved. Let's not forget though that "just so euro" is focused on coolness, and that therefore, on occasions, Bonn will come in for a slamming.

There are, of course, positive sides to Bonn - it's surprisingly international flair, it's wonderful outdoor lifestyle and "laast bat not leeest" (as the Germans would say) the wonderful Rhein. My way home from work runs right along the river, it's a real peach. Sometimes I just have to get off my bike and skim rocks at the freight ships. And take the odd photo as well.

You've got to pay that.
