Having spent half my life living in London, I'd become totally accustomed to the fact that stuff costs way more than it should and when it arrives (stuff) it's usually a bit disappointing. Money moves very fast... in the opposite direction. That's how it is.
Stuff is cheap in Berlin! I've said it before and I'll probably keep saying it until all my friends move here to be with me and bathe in the glow of genius bargains each and every day.
Not only is it cheap but it's GOOD.
As proof, here's a photo of this morning's breakfast, cost about three quid.
How do they do it?????
Oh, and breakfast was at Cafe Marx, near Görlitzer Bahnhof.
(Wasn't very Marxist though... unless "Seal's Greatest Hits" contains subliminal communist messages - it was playing rather audibly).

Oi Oi Deutsche Boy!
I grow pensive as life grows expensive... the other day I paid £23.99 for an Air flavoured muffin. After factoring in the falling value of the pound and the rising value of the yeast, I had to re-mortgage the house.
I won't tell you what I had to do for the coffee.
Discombobulated of Tunbridge Wells.
