In 1991, myself and a group of railway enthusiast friends spent four days in West Germany, visting loco depots in the Koln area. We stayed in a hotel in Dortmund, and I was amused by the sign on the door to the bathroom - 'bad kamer.' I had visions of Neil, from The Young Ones, sitting on the lav saying 'Oh no, bad karma - again!'
