There’s now a nice compact view that only shows what is left. The default view shows you how much per day you can download too.

Ended up getting to Munich fairly late in the afternoon, quick shower and then off to dinner at a traditional German Beer Hall.

Vast quantities of beer were consumed, there is only one size to order, a stein, that holds about a litre of beer. You have to drink it fairly quickly as the glass steins don’t keep the beer cold for too long. Some of the guys on tour decided to kick on and try a few more beer halls in town, I piked and hit the bed.

Tour has finished and I’m back in London after two awesome days in Amsterdam, have to get my washing done and a few other bits and pieces but expect the last few days of the trip to be updated here in the near future

Haven’t got any descriptions on them yet but they are from Rome onwards.

Still have another batch to get uploaded when I can get my iPod working again, damn thing has decided it doesn’t want to play any more.
