I spent 4 years in Munster, Germany as a kid. Was just an army brat, but I had some wonderful times over there. Memories include snow that covered the climbing frame, walks through a forest, that seemed to have play areas every few hundred yards, seating in the front seat of my old man's mini, the birth of my aryan brother, by that I mean he's blonde haired, blue eyed and born in Germany, my little pre-school I went to, it's sand pit, the (huge to me) library in the classroom and they encouraged learning, reading on your own, encouraged you to ask questions, something I found in short supply on my return to the UK and my favourite memory of all, my best mate, at the time, wanted to be white and so asked me to paint him. I did.
BIggest disappointment after my old man quit the army, was founding out two weeks later, we would have been shipped out to Hong Kong, still somewhere I'd love to visit.
