PostSubject: Newbie from Germany   Sun 2 May 2010 - 14:51

Hello everyone!

IŽm new here, so IŽll introduce myself first!
Born in Berlin, then lived in Gladstone and Melbourne in Australia, lived in Yangon, Burma where I visited the International School 1972 - 1975.
Studied Theology in Heidelberg, did my service as concentious objector, learnt geriatric nursing. Now I live in Wuppertal where I work in a retirement home as nurse and quality manager.

I am married, have 3 children.

Christian.

Kiltwearer on a daily basis.

Member of a student fraternity: SBV Hercynia in Heidelberg.

I love bent shapes and sandblasted pipes.

at the moment I smoke Larsens No. 50 and McBaren Navy flake, but I hope to try out many more!

Any more questions?

Shalom

Hermann

Welcome, Hermann!

Only one more question: Which tartan for your kilt? (I'm a Gunn myself.)
