"Derelict Places" and "Germany" don't seem to go together. I think they had enough of ruins in the Second World War.

Rubbish, Absolute Rubbish. We went last year and around Berlin the place is LITTERED with old Soviet bases, every single one is abandoned, big enough for thousands of people to live there.

We are going back in a week, an excellent country on all accounts!
