Nope! the lanlord kept asking for my NI number and finally gave up. But I was popular with the "old dears" - they were probably younger than I am now!:o

I suppose it would be churlish of me to point out that fledermaus in German means "bat", not field mouse?
Siebenschlaefer =dormouse is what you're wanting. What kind of language calls a bat "fledermaus!":o |

Re: wine!
If I buy wine it tends to be something Chilean or Argentinian. Never Australian. I get a nasty reaction to many wines, especially the cheaper blends and Aussie stuff that makes my face and neck bright red and itchy and hot. It's nasty. Have I said this already? Damned if I am going back to check. Anyway it's not a good thing to happen, and if out in the big wide world it's rather embarrassing.

At the risk of drastic thread drift, it turns out that my french mother-in-law's cleaning lady's father (you with me so far?) was the 2nd WW gunner who blew the steeple off the church right next to our house in Normandy on June 12th !944.
Small world, innit? |
