The BVG strike goes on . With little progress being made regarding a settlement , but what's noticeable is how well the public are adapting . More bicycles are in evidence which, in conjunction with the S Bahn make long journeys possible [ an ideal combi in poor weather]. Car and taxi usage has increased with people sharing costs.
I read that a group of BVG workers are keen to get back working. The union spokes person however is having no such talk. Also he is pushing to extend throughout Easter .To read his rhetoric is deja vu . Dare I say it 'transports' me to Britain , years ago. Let's hope the outcome here is somewhat better !
Today, with winds of up to 24 km/h it had to be SBahn plus bike . Using an iPod kept my ears warm and, riding down the Kudamm singing 'Cock Eyed Optimist' seemed most appropriate.
