Last week I spent 5 days in Titisee-Neustadt in the Black Forest, Germany which is one of the 2 towns we are twinned with. The other is Coulommiers in France.
Their political system is very different with the local Mayor ("Burgermeister") being an elected but paid role more like a Chief Executive, overseeing huge budgets but being very accountable and local.
Also there were the Grand Union Rapper from Leighton Linslade performing their dance to large crowds in the Tourist town of Titisee.
I will let you know when our German twin residents come over here as I know the Twinning forum will be putting on some events for them.
