    Interesting, it would be easy to think that the German public were all for him but he must have hAd plenty of enemies....and from within the German army.

    Throughout Germany mate. The Kreisau circle was one of the main centres of opposition.

    There were lots of good Germans who despised the Nazis.

    Aye, one of my favourite books is All Quiet on the Western Front....written in between the two world wars, by a German. The nazis hated it, they considered it massively unpatriotic.

    Also reading the latest diet book by The Hairy Bikers. It has tips on how I can get down to their combined weight.

    Hopefully they were on their bikes at the weigh in.

    I recently bought a book called The Savvy Shopper....and I got it for a couple of quid and not the £7.99 it should have been. How savvy of me is that? :cheesy:
