This is the pesky varmint I have had to master in order to get around Leipzig. It's funny how hard simple things become when you are travelling abroad (and when you don't have your children with you to explain the world to you). I have finally worked out how to change the ticket machine to "English", what form of ticket I require to go within area 110 and how to have the correct change in my pocket for the transaction. Also, how to do all this in a moving tram with a queue behind me whilst looking as though I know what I'm doing. Someone is bound to ask me how to do it today. I took three trams yesterday and am currently cowering in my room at 11am working up the courage to go out and do it all again. You are very fortunate to be hearing all these innermost thoughts and fears, you know. I wouldn't tell just anyone.
