Quote of the day from my wife: "Gazpacho is like Guinness. It's a superfood."

Nothing says 'summer has arrived in London' like Asad Ahmad's summer wardrobe on BBC London News!

Love how detailed the FedEx tracker is. Posted a parcel from the UK to Bavaria 11 days ago. On day 2 it arrived in Cologne where it spent the next 7 days. Then off to Wiesbaden for the weekend and now it's back in Cologne. Delivery still due on 11th June; fingers crossed.

@MusicaLondra @40PercentGerman True. The UK is missing proper buns which can hold a burger or sausage and some sauce without disintegrating on the first bite.

@40PercentGerman And if you are using variant 1 in Germany, they will work out a solution for you so you can come after all. (I've seen that happening!)

@mauricetfrank @40PercentGerman Earl Grey? Lucky you! Herbal and fruit infusions are the only "teas" I ever get in Germany.

Während der #EM hat die #Currywurst viele neue Fans gefunden. Die Schotten waren ganz wild darauf und bekommen jetzt in ihrem Stadion beim nächsten Länderspiel „Currywurst Pie“ …

@40PercentGerman Here's one I saw last year...

@simon_lauer1310 @saschastaat @RNBVB @GebhardtCedric Vielleicht auch das allgemein große Interesse der Briten an der Bundesliga. Auf der BVB-Website zähle ich 15 offizielle Borussia-Fanclubs in Großbritannien. Viele Briten reisen an Spieltagen extra nach Deutschland, mögen die Atmosphäre, das Bier und die günstigen Preise.

@40PercentGerman "When are you coming back home?", is a question I used to get a lot from folks in Germany (though they've given up now). Even after 24 yrs in the UK, I still go 'home' when I visit family in Germany - and then back 'home' to England. Sometimes I wonder if both or neither is home.

@40PercentGerman Es ist genug für alle da. They also got 10,000 for the UK.

@HighwaysSEAST @VirginiaAg13998 Is it not going to be the weekend 19-21 April then? Heard that somewhere today.

🎄📽️ One of the most popular Christmas films in Germany is the 1980 UK film 'Little Lord Fauntleroy' starring Alec Guinness.

'Der kleine Lord' has been a Christmas mainstay in Germany since it was first broadcast in 1982 and is often shown multiple times over the holidays.

@MattEvans How cool! After reading your tweet, I texted my mum in Germany to ask if she's watching Barnaby and indeed she is. So I sent here a couple of pictures of the time when I took my parents to Carter's Steam Fair during one of their England visits and we saw the 'Wall of Death'.

@JohnBarre @DeepLcom And it didn't catch the only actual error in the text (the comma after 'Viele Grüße').
