    That's what I'm doing. I think I have 4 apps on my tablet now (the website I was directed to earlier has an app so that's on there too now :D )
    I think someone mentioned der Hund, die Katze and das Pferd earlier and I learnt those this week (vaguely remember them from school), which probably shows how low a level I'm currently at :o
    It's really hard to focus so far :o but I'm determined not to give up, will see how far I've got by Christmas :j

    DS1 used some apps when doing his exams. I learned more from the short time living there than I ever did at school. If you have to live there you learn pretty quickly. It's a great thing you are doing so stick with it!
    Say for the purposes of translating......you are probably learning more than enough. From what I've seen, and I have had occasion to use translators a lot in the past, they are good at piecing together the parts they don't know from translating the bits they do know. Stick in there ;)

    Years ago (early 90s) I was on my way to get a photo ID card for a military base I'd just arrived at, I got caught in a torrential downpour on the way :o:( My ID photo was rats tail hair and panda eyes :o :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
    I spent the next few weeks trying to destroy the pass to get a replacement. I boil washed it, soaked it in a basin of fairy liquid and even gave it to my dad's dog to chew. That blinkin thing was indestructible!! :eek: :o:o
    Then my Dad bought a microwave :D Muhahaha.....that did the trick :D:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: Destroyed!

    So, I turned up at the guard room with my destroyed pass. I had perfect hair, glossy lips and an extra layer of mascara all ready for my new perfect photo. I asked the guy on the desk where to go for my photo and he said 'No need, we have your last one on file....we'll use that' :eek: :mad: :mad: :rotfl::rotfl:

    :rotfl: :rotfl: sorry FC :rotfl:
    I just have this vision of you without a hair out of place with steam coming out of your ears :rotfl:

    I'm usually pretty good at getting the gist of some sentences from picking out the words I know.
    It's flipping it the other way around I can't do.
    Hopefully I'll be able to help DS1 with his study, between me and DH we have nearly all the subjects covered :j

    I'd better get to bed. I have the jolly band of builders turning up early doors. Plus a possibly grumpy window fitter. I had to buy tea bags :eek: full price tea bags!! :eek:

    .......I started having a mad idea of turning my new building into a holiday let to earn money today :eek: I haven't told anyone else yet :D :eek: :rotfl:

    Goodnight :)
