MERCEDES DRIVERS DIG THE HOLE DEEPER

Must be the same females lining the streets when I inspected them in the early eighties, as many were pretty young then...

Oh yes, I DO have crossed the Danube before! ;-)

And when I was a child I had Bavarian-style Lederhosen - yes, really, no joke!

Yes, Schmuddelwetter exactly meets it (cloudy and drizzling) - maybe the similarity of the wheater makes me feel so good everytime I visit the UK?

Weizengelb? A great colour for the late /8 and the W123 - for today a bit too _loud_ but was perfect for the 1970s.

And 60 PS? Maybe as stick shift? Compared to a 55 PS W123 200D with auto trans it is a race-car (over the past 20 years I drove all W123 diesel engines: 55, 60; 60; 65, 72;

FLAT? They have a mountain which is 168 m high (551 feet)! And only ignorant people would call that a _hill_... ;-)

Yes, these cars _are_ slow - but buses and trucks are even slower ;-)

The Tri Farben House in Munich is reputed to be full of Dori's ex-80's conquests!

The VW guys told me everyone in Bavaria is named Fritz....

No, Maxi (after Emperor Maximilian)...

Fritz is the name of every German in Anglo-Saxon war comics.

Funny thing is that I have a Bavarian friend whose name is...Fritz...and he has a son called...Maximilian...

And in the (small residential) building where my office is there is a family where the mother hails from Munich and their son is called...Maxi...

The other children of these two families are girls, so they don't count in this survey. London Maxi's dad is originally from the Caribbean, so he doesn't count. That leaves three males with Bavarian connections.

So by this highly scientific survey, you may conclude that all Bavarian males are called Fritz or Maxi, and that there are two Maxis for every Fritz...

So maybe Jerry McG is not so wrong after all...
