Heidelberg
It had been a good day. My lecture on ‘Can you believe the results you get from any instrument?’ had been awarded the ‘Accolade d’Or’. My manager was well pleased and suggested a trip to anywhere nearby.
Heidelberg was quite a distance - 90km - but there we went - five of us, next day.
I love singing.
On the west bank of the Neckar, looking across, I could only think of Mario Lanza and ‘The Student Prince’.
So I started singing, ‘Overhead the moon is beaming’.
The others joined in, I harmonised.
We finished to applause from the small crowd who gathered!

I can hear it now! I’ve always wanted to visit Heidelberg, ever since I watched Marianne Faithful in ‘Girl on a Motorcycle’. The views were terrific, and Heidelberg too!
