Okay everyone, time to chill on the German jokes especially when the member is a newbie.

This somehow reminds me of a famous "Fawlty Towers" episode!

As a long time fan of Fawlty Towers I remember the episode well and the other 11.

Don't mention the war!

Funniest line was by the Major to Fawlty talking about a former girlfriend... "I must have been impressed with her because I took her to see India ... at the Oval!" 🤣

Germans may not get that joke.

Very sad that, with today's insistence on PC, Fawlty Towers would probably not be produced.  Even post-Brexit, Manuel from Barcelona would not be allowed.

I also remember that one soccer game in 2010 when the line was slightly changed to "don´t mention the four!" 😁

As an Englishman, the people who post on Avsim where English is not their native tongue is really impressive, oh and welcome to the OP.

Willkommen bei Avsim. Ich bin sicher, Ihr Englisch ist besser als mein Deutsch, aber zum Glück ist es einfach, Dinge über das Internet zu übersetzen. Sei. Also nicht schüchtern, mach mit. 🙂

And for the benefit of the English speakers, that was my terrible attempt to say:

Welcome to Avsim. I'm sure your English is better than my German, but fortunately it's easy to translate stuff via the internet. So don't be shy, join in the fun.

 

Most Germans can speak English.
