Guten Tag Herr German in the Shoe
There was much joy and celebration in the Anthony household following these pictures (Lee even made me wear my lederhosen for the whole day!!!!) What a great start for the German in the Shoe - he must be loving it - well done Steve and Valerie. I really loved the comment that went with the cannon pic. I hear you are about 1 week away from that unemployed Aussie bum called Jef. Apparently he is going to try and trick you into believing that he has a job by leaving the house every morning in a suit and going to sleep in the park - DON'T BELIEVE IT. Cheers and lots of love from Dave, Lee and Liam
