Global 1940 Wittman and Private Panic vs Credulous and Elrood

[Elrood]

Wittmann reminds me more and more of a young Donald Trump.  :mrgreen:

[Witt]

I love my dad! He has been a great role model and will make a superb head of state.

[Private-Panic]

Shame you did not inherent his tact and intelligence Leo  :-P

[Witt]

I have his tact . And is he intelligent?

[Private-Panic]

Not so anyone would notice, no. But it would have been a step up for you!

Where is J’s go Tojo? You are holding us up :-(

[Elrood]

btw. There is a bank holiday in good old Germany tomorrow…

big Atheists we are, we celebrate the ascension of Christ on Thursday and most males will drink themselves into a stupor (its also used to celebrate fathers-day here)

my family will go camping… starting tomorrow morning until Sunday. So I wont be making any moves before Monday after today.

[Private-Panic]

Are you all keen campers then Seb?

[Elrood]

yes. I would say its famous mode of vacation for Germans. And we are no exception.

I enjoy the simpleness of it, albeit a German commercial camping ground is nothing simple anymore… with its pristine sanitary installations, kitchen, breakfast bun service etc etc.  :wink:

But we like to fool ourselves with the “I can survive in the wilds” attitude… hehe

[Private-Panic]

My wife is keener on 5 star hotel bedrooms. She did once go camping forty years ago and that was enough for her!

I still enjoy the breakfast bun service though.

[Elrood]

@Private:

I still enjoy the breakfast bun service though.

I daresay a simple breakfast after a night sleeping outside is better than the best buffet you can have a in hotel.  :-)

Its like eating a simple meal after exercising for 2 hours… I don’t know… its just differently taken in.
