If only someone could be bothered to check how to pronounce Sylvesterabend!

[@Diogenes-socrat]

Thank you for your suggestion, I will be more careful from now on :)

@@Diogenes-socrat Thank you, it would be very much appreciated - you aren't the only reader who doesn't pronounce it correctly. New Year's Eve is a big festival in Germany and Austria, as well as in England and elsewhere.

And it's Silvesterabend, not Sylvester......

[@alidabaxter5849]

@@purple467 I grovel! Of course you're right but my spoken German has stayed with me more than my written.

Wonderful story! The Germans behaved as grumpy socially awkward people, though in the end they missed the gaiety of the English lady.
