I find that really interesting RR.

Just as a further aside, did your friend ever intimate what Germans think of Austria, on that basis responsible in those circumstances for producing the Hitler/Shicklgruber phenomenon ??


I was pretty surprised at it too - but , according to my friend , he's pretty much despised in Hamburg,Koln, Frankfurt,etc., and there's a firm divide of attitudes & culture between Bayern & the rest of Germany ; likewise Austrians too. They're regarded as backward,old-fashioned and uneducated banjo strummers. Perhaps there's a similar parrallel of mistrust/contempt in US society between, say, New Yorkers & Dixie.


Thanks chum; interesting to know.

It's almost like a sort of North-South divide which, historically, might spring from the fact that, before 1871, Germany was not a single unified 'country', just a geographical amalgam of independent small states, basically speaking the same language.

We can't have him associated with anything so tainted.

Sorry John.


You like your music Mikhail.
Word is Beckenbauer, Hoeness and Rumenigge are going to form a powerhouse trio.
They're calling themselves The Kaiser Cheats.




Bet that one does a Stuka.

Brilliant.

Exactly.
I had zero interest in the Olympics and I already have zero interest in the next two World Cups.
Terrible really. Nearly hope we don't qualify.
Our best sporting showpieces are being robbed from us.

As you get a little older you realise that Santa Clause doesn't really exist, apart from in our hearts.


Fuck you Beefy, you should have put that i a spoiler box.
First football's not real, now Santa.?
