Germans Not Amused
 
2 Attachment(s)
May be old, but still funny...

British tourists have left the residents of one Austrian village effing and blinding by constantly stealing the signs to their village.

But the local authorities are hitting back by setting the signs in concrete.

Local police Kommandant said "We will not stand for the *****ing signs being removed. It may be amusing to the British but *****ing is simply *****ing to us."

A local guest house manager said "Just this morning I had to tell one English lady that there were no *****ing postcards."

Germans? Austrians? :confused:

I always wanted to steal the sign for "Six Mile Bottom" in Cambridgeshire...

Kids always used to steal the road sign from the bottom of our street in Houston....

We lived on 'Morningwood'......

They don't have a sense of humour........it's a widely known fact.

I must admit, if I saw that sign, I'd be tempted to steal it.
