    The Berlin Wall Fell I remember watching this and thinking how marvellous, especially as almost exactly one year earlier I was walking around East Berlin thinking how awful it must be to live there.

                        I can remember walking round East Berlin in 1987 wondering how I'd been transported 20+ years back in time to the 60s.... But it could have been a result of the amount of alcohol ingested - I was on a football 'tour', staying with the Glorious Gloucesters[^], who we had links with - good times :-)

                        Java, Basic, who cares - it's all a bunch of tree-hugging hippy cr*p

                          Do you know what The Spandau Ballet actually was? Quite Interesting... When they hanged War Criminals at Spandau after WWII, the little jig they did as they died becam known as the Spandau Ballet! Also, The Band formed in the Late 70's, so Technically I Refix your FTFY to ...

                                        The Berlin Wall Fell I remember watching this and thinking how marvellous, especially as almost exactly one year earlier I was walking around East Berlin thinking how awful it must be to live there.

                                        You should thank the afghan talibans for creating the environment for the wall to come down. 250,000 died to bring soviet union to her knees.
