Arrival in Bonn

19Oct07

Well, I just got to Bonn and my first impression is that nobody looks like me. What was I thinking? I had visions of assembling armies of lookalikes. Right now I would feel be happy with just the one. Well, it will be interesting to see how things play out over the next week.

For those of you who might have happened accross the site (which is pretty unlikely) and have absolutely no idea what I am on about (more likely) I am looking for my doppelganger in Bonn. This week celebrates the sixtieth anniversary of the twinning of Oxford and Bonn. As part of the festivities a few artists from Oxford were invited to make work.

My proposal was that, if the cities are twins, then by a logical extension, I, being from Oxford (some of the time) should also have my personal twin in Bonn. At least one! So i have come to look for him, or them. I have just got off the train wandered about and found a hotel (nice owner but he shouts at his wife). If anyone knows a cheap place to stay in Bonn please let me know.

Ok, thats all for now. More to follow.
