Hah!
Yesterday some friends *waves to Lois and Virgil* were over at my place. I mentioned my prospective trip to hell Monchengladbach and one of them went websurfing for it. We tried to find the hotel I had stayed at last time, and I thought it might have been called somethign like "Queen's Hotel" but I wasn't sure. I stayed there once 5 years ago. My memory ain't all that great to begin with.
Anyway, we couldn't find it. So I just assumed I had remembered it wrong.
Today I had a meeting at work in which the name of the hotel came up. Turns out I was right. It was the Queen't Hotel. But it had been bought out by the Holiday Inn chanin and was one of those now. Our search last night turned up a Holiday Inn, so the mystery is explained.
Feels kind of good to know I remembered such a small detail from 5 years ago. Until about the age of 9 I couldn't even remember the days of the week (and I tried) so unlike people who take a decent memory for granted, this sort of thing is worth a journal entry for me.
