It is so comforting to feel understood (especially here in Deutschland, where the grand Australian traditions of "humour, irony and piss-taking" are so often misinterpreted.)<br /><br />I had actually discovered your Egyptian blog early last year and was devastated when the disaster hit. Am so glad to hear that you've managed to salvage something... and also glad you've moved here... <br /><br />Happy New Year!<br /><br />cheers,<br />PJmel<br />cheers,<br />PJMelPJMelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16914414716026157485noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8529831139704060463.post-39930477711537337882010-01-13T01:57:23.235-08:002010-01-13T01:57:23.235-08:00Well, I do think Germans are funny. Just not funny...Well, I do think Germans are funny. Just not funny ha-ha, as it were. I generally find almost all English and Scots to be hilariously amusing, in a dry sort of way. Germans, I just have trouble connecting with. My husband's joke is that I married him for his sense of humor, and I think that's the funniest joke I have ever heard him make (he obviously has other wondrous qualities). I'm not a very funny person either, so, in the past, I've generally been the straight side of the humor pairings:).<br />In Germany, I seem to have fewer humorous issues with the administration and more angry and frustrating ones: the intransigent beamtor doesn't say no with the charm of the Italian beamtor, I think.G in Berlinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11168975470282994167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8529831139704060463.post-47404882639304237182010-01-12T09:37:48.392-08:002010-01-12T09:37:48.392-08:00Well I never!

I loved hearing about your tales in Egypt and was sad when you lost your old blog. I kept your link for many months hoping you would return, and then sadly gave up :( I would have sent this to you privately, but you have your email sent to no reply (perhaps afraid of getting your own stalkers ;) so im following up here. I look forward to going back a few months to catch up and see what you've been up too. Hope the family is well....cheers~<br />lisajoblack bear cabinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07542792082924938833noreply@blogger.com
