Happy Birthday W.A. Mozart II
Posted by: Berlin Fritz on 23 January 2006
Most German's have an annoying habit, (if you're not English that is) of calling all Brits 'Engl�nder' so if you're a Paddy, Jock, or Taff, it can be quite demanding on one's patience at times! I mean I'd be bloody pissed off too, if somebody kept calling me Welsh all the time as well (and let's face it, who wouldn't Boyo, isn't tit?).
As the British (mainly English & 'HM Gutter Press) like to fondly refer to Germans as The Bosh, Krauts, The Hun, etc, etc, they themselves have a nice little descriptive phrase for us too, though far less insulting I find! We are tenderly known as 'Insel Affen' (Island Monkeys) (which is a light insult to a stranger) so when I'm in ignorant company (quite often) I start off by calling myself such, and get red faces all round, works a treat so it does; and breaks any ice that might still be lurking in tiny minds, dunnit.
Fritz
Enjoying it all***
P.S.
I refer here of course to everyday street German/English and not Company bullshit sprouted
out by two year contract wallers on high wages & commissions (Consultants & Sales)who wouldn't know their arses from their elbows in the real world of one to one meaningful communication, innit** Wotta Prize Old Bitch that Fritz is today, really, give him a wallnut to shut him up somebody**
N.B. There's hands afoot here to ban the speaking of other languages in school playgrounds (high level politics) in odour to improve allround Spoken-German amongst all kids and better comunication in class. The princible's good I reckon, but God only knows what stress will occur in trying to actually enforce it**
It's not always easy being a teacher*

I think raising a subtle finger is rude, and I don't like rude people. Points can be made clearly and with civility, and then nobody is in doubt about what the intention was. In that way the person making the point, maybe, will be disliked for it, but will certainly have been shown to have the courage of his or her convictions, and be regarded as straight forward. I am all for clarity, but then I am just a bit old fashioned and no doubt wrong as well. I am too old to change though! Fredrik

Sir,
Police officers reading about North Yorkshire County Council's claim of 'harassment'when asked simple questions by journalists (Eye 1149) will barely raise their eyebrows. The protection from Harassment Act 1997 (amended by SOCPA 2005) was introduced mainly to deal with "stalking" after several high profile cases. Regrettably, loose wording allowed all manner of interpretation and it is now often used by jilted, bitter ex-partners seeking to criminalise, for their own purposes, what is generally nothing more than a nuisance (texting, telephone calls etc), neighbours with petty disputes who seem unable to resolve their problems like grown-ups and teenage girls falling out with each other on a daily basis, using "texting" (again) to annoy each other. Such individuals readily and regularly report such "crimes" to the police who in a desperate attempt to comply with the National Crime Recording Standard (NCRS) then record and "investigate" such nonsesnse. The femail journalist who called NYCC does have a defence to the "offence" though. The Act states that it is only harassment if " another reasonable person in possesssion of the same information would think the course of conduct amounted to harassment" I think NYCC might struggle there.
Get out there and deal with burglers and rapists? If only.

Pathetic*

Fishing Trip
A guy is 81 years old and loves to fish.
He was sitting in his boat the other day when he heard a voice say, "Pick me up."
He looked around and couldn't see any one.
He thought he was dreaming when he heard the voice say again, "Pick me up."
He looked in the water and there, floating on the top, was a frog.
The man said, "Are you talking to me?"
The frog said, "Yes, I'm talking to you.
Pick me up.
Then, kiss me and I'll turn into the most beautiful woman you have ever seen. I'll then give you more sexual pleasure that you ever could have dreamed of."
The man looked at the frog for a short time, reached over, picked it up carefully, and placed it in his front breast pocket.
Then the frog said, "What, are you nuts?
Didn't you hear what I said? I said kiss me and I will give you sexual pleasures like you have never had."
He opened his pocket, looked at the frog and said, "Nah, at my age I'd rather have a talking frog."
Fredders Old Bean, you came to mind for some reason Old Chap?***
Best Regards,
Fritz
I was at a little meeting a few days ago, and was telling all and sundrie my name (as they'd asked), and then totally out of the blue, a young lady (with who'm, I am/was aquainted) though Hadn't seen for about 3 years, nonchalentally strolled in, tapped me on the shoulder, and said "Hello Fritzy mate, how's it going?), I was shocked & stunned, and trigger did come to mind! (Absolutely True, Honnist, now would I lie to you John(s)?)***
(Fritz is a nickname known to 95% of folk I know, (and their kids) but not at all used in my own local Hood , where my real name is Dave or Rodney, or Graham) , obvious, innit Tom!*

I popped into the Gluepot last week after a train jouney from London and the barman had never even heard of you.
He did say, however, that you seemed to be a wanker.
The barman at the Lodge would never say anything like that.

No surprises there then Our Mick, as I've never ever frequented the place, too many aggressive Gobby ex-squaddies with a point to prove through their drunken frustration at life I'm reliably told. So, you finally got chucked out of the Big Brother Hoose then John! (I lost a lady on that one thank you). You are right, forum's are moving places, (though I can listen to music too, simultaneously, as I am now so doing) bit like Swindon (and other) Barman really, who make comments about folk they've never met (though who one day may well do, right out of the bluey), or maybe he was just saying, what you wanted to hear; what do you get paid for running the lodge bar then Jack by the way, or is it charitable on your part?

The fact that you yourself chose to put the words into your favourite barman's mouth is neither here nor there, and I must remind you that high flying Silicon Wally Consultants such as thou, can easily be replaced by younger & smarter girls with ease, innit*

My rather poor memory tells me that this is the very first occassion I've seen you use intelligent well thought out Partly-Manly terminology like 'Wanker', and I hope it'll be the last, because it simply lacks style old Chip, and the Grand Master would no doubt agree with me, just like the rest of the all white Jury, innit:

I was merely repeating what the barman said. To be honest, the Gluepot is hardly what one would describe as a solubrious pub and it does attract a rather bohemian clientelle. It lies opposite of the Criketers Arms which is a gay pub. Hence you will understand why I assumed you once frequented it. To be honest, I suspected that you had once worked there.
There is a much better bohemian pub up in the "old town" called the Beehive which serves some fairly potent brews and seems to attract a lot of elderly intellectual types who appear to be permanently semi plastered. I have a good friend ( a defence solicitor) who gets blottoed up there most Friday evenings.
A previous landlord paid some unheard of intellectual £5000.00 to give a lecture on a subject that no one understood the first thing about.
