Kaffee und Kuchen

Today we had some unusual visitors.
Twenty five Germans.
Who didn't speak English.
They knew about as much English as I know German.
(I can say Happy Christmas, they can say "tea" and "coffee". Theirs, in this instance, was far more useful.)
We did a good deal of smiling, nodding and pointing to cakes.
They all sat outside.
I discovered later that they were garden enthusiasts on a 6-day tour of England. And they know a good garden when they see one.
