I'm back from Germany and back to the Prefecture. I still haven't received my plastic carte de sejour and my paper one is about to expire - again. I'll have to go to the Prefecture (or Sous Prefecture to be exact) and see what's going on. Last time I was there they told me it was sent to the printers on the 30th October so I should be receiving it at any moment. Yeah right.

I also have to exchange my Australian drivers licence as my current one is about to expire. I wonder if the Australian Consulate can renew it for me. I suppose I should contact them just in case but I doubt it. I hope there's not much paper work involved in getting a French licence. Yep, that was a joke! I am in France after all.

So I'll have to get up early tomorrow so I can queue up for an hour or so. Seeing it's already 2am it's not going to be pretty.

I'll post about Cologne soon, once I get back into writing mode.
