Gambling on horse races - not very popular in Germany. True, we have some important horse races, but I suppose it's more for the "high society" than for the man in the street.

Mac, that must be true (bad winter) - I remember my grandmother always told me when we arrived in Germany in May there was still snow and it must have been the year when you were born.

No, we came in 1946, so it must have been the first winter we passed in Germany.

No doubt the worst winter in my life time was 1947 but previous to that we had some very bad winters
