A lot of flats in East Berlin are in recently refurbished and converted buildings. These typical old Berlin apartment houses are usually enormous (by London standards anyway) and four or five floors high. Some have nice little lifts newly installed, some don't. Ours doesn't.
Stairs and heavy boxes can be such a fun combination: Oh! How we laughed and sang!
Here is photographic evidence of our long and winding staircase. Feel the pain.

All these lovely words and nobody has left a comment. It's not right.

(PS Mind you, I'm a bit pissed off I won't be seeing you next time we're back in London - what's the point of going there now?)
Julian!
Junko!
Very very nice to hear from you.
Especially since you gone done the same thing, albeit in a more extreme fashion, 10 years ago now!
Fancy a trip to Berlin?
