1680Foreign Language Friday: This charming German lady explains in her audio clip that she had just experienced a bad relationship break-up a few years ago.

She was “whinging and moaning” about her situation to one of her best friends from school, who then told our subject this – which means “When a door closes, a window opens”.

This cheered our subject up a bit, who “thought she actually has a point, in that that kind of stuff always has the potential for new opportunities”. Taken in Clapham, London, UK.
