..this weekend I was at a party (usual state of affairs) & in the early hours of the morning we sat around drinking & smoking dope, someone asked "where will your party of the century be?"
I answered "Berlin when the wall comes down".

The next morning I staggered home, turned the telly on and saw that incredible footage of the Wall coming down & the East Berliners dancing on the rubble.
18 months later I walked up Ünter Den Linden , under the Brandenburg Gate & into East Berlin.

Were you there then?

Mine was at Wimpy, in 1987. I was 6. Heady days.

Not then, and I'm still bitter about it!
Went inter railing 18 months later, got into Berlin and spent some time just walking around the Eastern side of Ünter Den Linden.
