Yes, this food is rather "fast food". It's as if I'd say that a McDonalds or Burger King or otherwise "Burger" would be regarded as "a typical american meal".
Regarding this picture . http://static.gamer.no/images/9/911/…184x3456.f.JPG
It is made on the brisdge connecting the Cathedral/Main Railway Station with the trade fair area and crosses the river Rhine (Rhein, in German language).
I have read that these locks are meant to strengthen or to "lock" the love or marriage between of a couple, and that this is "imported" from Italy.
This is what I've read about it. I have no proof for it.
Besides, the local newspaper, the "Kölner Stadt-Anzeiger" www.ksta.de has a few articles in today's issue.
One commentator criticises the overcrowding of the area - he writes that the "Kölner Messe" (the company to which the trade fair area belöongs and which is responsible for the fair schedules) needs to use more halls in the future - simply because there were too many people who wanted to go in.
Another commentator wrote a few days ago that visitors were cursing traffic jams, because they had to wait - but had no problem waiting for hours in "traffic jams" - read : queues - at the Games Com, in front of popular booths.
Edit : The THQ Newsletter I just received says that there'll be a warhammer space marine demo out tomorrow (August 23rd, that is).

I see. I'll take a look at it nevertheless (if it isn't too big), because I just wanted to take a glimpse at that universe.
