Translation of caustic in German

My mom and dad used to speak English when they wanted to say something I shouldn't understand. In this way I have learned English. I did not tell them till late, but I did understand every word they said.
I have not been in eastern Germany for a long time, because I have never really had time to travel. What do you do for living and in your leisure time, like the weekends and evenings.
I'm glad as well, thanks for the suggestions. I had little time last week as we had many important meetings. I beg your pardon. Let us continue later. Many greetings from Germany.
