Boring ‘Very British’-Festival

Here’s my report on the ‘Very British’-Festival at the Rhein Ruhr Zentrum shopping mall in Mülheim an der Ruhr. I had announced it here. It was only okay and not really worth going there. The trick worked – we did shopping

Very British – Festival At Rhein-Ruhr-Shopping Center

From July 2nd to 11th there will be a “Very British” Festival at the shopping mall of ‘Mülheim an der Ruhr‘, not far form the city limits of the city of Essen. The mall is called ‘Rhein-Ruhr-Zentrum‘. There will be several events. I assume that most of them will take place on a stage, i.e.

• a visit of the “Queen” (sounds like a look-alike),
• British live music,
• British movies in original languages, at least two per day, and
• a restaurant offering Fish’n'Chips.

There is a printed program which is also available as a PDF document here.

British-American Supermarket On Wheels

On Februar 12th i wrote about a supermarket on wheels called ‘food from home‘. On Saturday, 13th of June 2009 my wife and me finally visited its stop at the theater of the musical Starlight Express in Bochum. Well, it’s more a van than a lorry. We only bought Kraft’s Maccaroni with cheese (without any cheese in it) and a packet of baking soda. Later we found out that we could have used ‘Kaiser Natron’ which is available at pharmacies. Anyway, I produced a small video of one minute length about the supermarket on wheels with British-American food.

Right now I am working on several videos to be released soon but this is the first one ever published on youtube.
