    "Parken auf eigene Gefahr" would have meant the same thing.

    For being known as efficient people they sure dont display such characteristics with their language.

    If there's one thing that you can do with the German language better than any other is take a bunch of small words and turn them into one big one. It can become a little confusing when you're still learning and trying to read.

    Yes, but only because it was written by a Dane, Dr Phil!

    I just wonder WHY they wrote it in German - what about the Danish version? You all speak German up there by now - how convenient for me...

    Came back from Cope yesterday, must say, lovely town with lovely people and even lovlier girls. didnt see many porsches though... an no Dr Phil running round with rolling eyes! but there where two 430s in a lovely grey (one with a german plate) driving circles. the relative lack of porsches was even more noticable coming to Cope from Stockholm; man, there were more porsches and sl than golfs in that town, just unbelievable - these guys must have brought their taxes down!!

    cheers from someone who is very sadly back from a three weeks holiday...
