theducksStill in Switzerland. It's very pretty. Went up the Jungfrau yesterday. Will type more when on own computer.
Seriously though? German keyboards shit me to tears. Why the HELL is it convenient to require the shift key to type a / or an alt-key for a @ symbol? Man, it's like the keyboard layout was mandated by the Treaty of Versailles. The QWERTZ thing I can deal with, but the rest of it is a pain.
Unrelated post about the Qantas incident.. In the news article, the head of emergency medicine at Perth's biggest hospital said: '"There were minor cuts and scratches to the head and minor problems related to muscular injuries in the neck, as you can imagine if you were suddenly woken up and you were attached to the ceiling," he said.

Scary incident any how!
