Went there in the mid 80's whilst I was in the Army, before the wall got taken down and when Checkpoint Charlie was there! :old:

Was in Germany (West Germany as it was then :old: ) for 10 years and Berlin is a beautiful city! :D

Get yourself to the Kurferstendamm ;) and get a Jager schnitzel (Veal and mushrooms) in your belly! :D

The local beer is Holsten Pilsner!

Nice beer, although my favourite was Koenigspilsner and then Becks! :D

Went to Berlin for a week to play football, but did a bit of sightseeing and went past Spandau prison, whilst Hess was still being held there! :old:

I was stationed in Spandau for 2 years in Brooks Barracks just behind the prison. I saw Hess on a couple of occasions although it was rare for him to be outside of the buildings within the prison.
I loved Berlin and would love to go back some day. Some great memories. :ayatollah:

I went there a few years back to see The Opressed and then The Business, SLF and Argy Bargy..... I went there thinking this place is gonna be full of a right shower of cnuts and found out it was the best european visit ive ever had.

Beer is reasonable and brothels are legal :ayatollah:

we have just opened an office out there about 1/4 mile from checkpoint charlie. awesome place, quite expensive mind. but the architecture is amazing, very Russian and oligarchal. Also if you want a pint of bow theres a pub called the irish times that do it on draught, its on leipzierstrasse.

Not trying to be clever, but do you mean Leipzigerstrasse? :)
