Do I have to get out of Bed?
Today is the day. Felix is being returned and for the first time in just over 6 months, Timm and I don't have our house on wheels anymore. I must admit it feels quite weird - I don't have to think about where we will be staying tomorrow or what interesting place we want to drive to!
We did, however, manage to sell the rest of our stuff to Roberto, a Spaniard who was here in Germany having just bought a Motorhome to take back home. Such is the life of the motorhome community.
Handover went well, Tobias (our rental agent) was great as always and they were happy with the condition of the vehicle so a big sigh of relief!
I must admit though that I did shed a tear or two....
But no time to pine. Back into Munich where I had booked a little studio flatlet with AirBnB for the weekend. Our Host met us, we got settled and Timm ended up watching german TV :-)
Then, at 8:30 pm (4 hours after checking in) our Host's Boyfriend phoned us, wanting to find out how many loads of washing we were planning on doing and that they had a sneaky suspicion we had rented the flat only to use it as a laundromat. Hugh???
I tried to (as politely as I could) tell the guy that if he had an objection to the washing machine / tumble dryer being used then he should not advertise it as such and then accuse his guests (who had barely moved in) of excessive use. This is not the way to deal with guests and I was keen to look for a new place.
Two minutes later he phoned back - as I was still absolutely fuming Timm answered. He eventually lost his cool when he got told that "Our host had bought and carried the tumble dryer up the stairs himself; that he had been to South Africa and he knows what goes on there and he didn't want his newborn infected with diseases!". Timm shared the wisdom with him that it would probably be a good idea for them to never meet .... Right. Time to move out.
He took Timm's advice and sent his girlfriend to fetch the keys - What a chicken!! (Timm's comment: Weichei!!)
So at 9 pm, we packed up our stuff and moved out again. We are now settled into a Holiday-Inn type of airport hotel and trying to get some sleep....
