    while in Berlin the language most frequently used is Russian

    Errm, please don't be offended, but that's rubbish! :confused:

    Berlin is a great city to visit - loads to see and do. Weather may not be great at the beginning of March (then again you might be lucky!) but you'll have no shortage of places to visit.
  • thankyou everyone!

    i'm hopefully just about to complete a booking for a trip for 3 nights to berlin including flights and hotel for £87 which i think is a great price!

    I was tempted to reply but I have deleted it.
  • But they say that if you speak English very clearly and very loudly, all natives understand you, particularly if you obviously have lots of their money.
    You'd better carry some glass beads, so you can give them to the natives. :D:D:D

    (Voyager2002, you obviously have never been to Germany.)

    I have, but only in the good old days before the Democratic Republic was absorbed by the West.

    Pity that I never got to play the Glass Bead Game when I was there.
