Forty one years ago today the Germans beat the Dutch in the World Cup in Munich.

Martin is well known across the city as a counsellor. A man of kindness and wisdom.

I missed the ordination ceremony you speak of, Michael. On that same day I heard radio commentary on that World Cup Final while on my way by train from Frankfurt-am-Main to Salzburg.
