We have reached the conclusion that 'the book' that we are always endeavouring to do things by, is an incomprehensible tome. High on a small dose of entrepreneurial spirit we visited the Wirtschaftkammer (Board of Trade) with a modest money making idea, only for the wind to be sucked out of our sails with a bureaucratic vacuum cleaner. Of course we can run a little business which will require us to perform simple tasks such as book a hotel or drive a minibus, but only after the required three years of training and study. It seems that it is not only the French who don't have a word for entrepreneur.
