Bridge and I went off sightseeing, people in Cologne like statues of chopped off heads:

Here's St Gereon church, one of the most gorgeous ones in Cologne:

It has a pretty funky roof:

Wandering around Clogne's Mediapark:

A lot of the buildings show statues of how the local King was told to stand on a pillar for 3 days:

The side of Eigelstein gate, build beginning of 12th century:

I found the switch for raising and lowering the Portcullis:

Oh, and Crazy pointed out that they have some weird-ass Becks in Germany:

The strange Becks freaked out Stu:

But REALLY freaken FREAKED OUT Crazy!

One of the coolest things in Cologne was this "bicycle". People sit around the outside of it peddling and getting served beer while they tour around Cologne:

After going for a wander over the main railway bridge:

We were also lucky enough to time our visit with Germanys largest fireworks display:

Mmm, drinking beers and watching fireworks, was a great lead in to the night.

Um, I don't need to go in to further explanation on this pic:

I got bored with walking between pubs:

The effect of a few beers:

Bridget after she nicked the taxi drivers HV vest:

All Stu wanted to do in Germany was to find an underground Thrash-death-metal night club. We found one (although they changed the music from thrash-death-metal to dance music):

This is a good summary of the night, Stu, me, Kent and Bridge going nuts while Andrew scores:

Did someone say "blue steel"?!

And finally, it was back off to the airport on the last day for our delayed flight back to London. Stu and I amused ourselves with a game we invented, you got a point if you managed to roll you bag between the others legs:

Cologne, go see it!
