Thanks Raimo,
L?neburg is one of those towns that has a very friendly and prosperous 
feel to it, you get the impression that people really like living there 
and take good care of their city. Of course this feeling is currently 
being boosted because a nationally broadcast daily soap series is filmed 
there, so they all want the town to look its best (which it does). One 
of my favourite cities.
Cheers
Douglas
