What i meant was that in general, Germans were more serious while English were more goffey with sence of humour,have you ever heard this saying *Sour Krute* the Germans end up with this nick name cause, they were very serious.But by saying this there were some Germans that had a sence of humour, which you have proven in you're Third Rench photo's :wink: .
It sounds like you have German in you, by you're responce.If you do,i'm truley sorry if i offended you.No intensions of doing so. :)

Keep up the good work :wink:
Doen't the "Sour Krute" you mention come more from the German's liking for "Saurkraut", which is a national staple food, basically pickled cabbage?, The British may well have coined the phrase due it been a derogatory name for the then enemy, Typically the term "Krauts" was used by both the British and more commonly (If you believe Hollywood) by the Americans. British tended to use "Jerries" or singularly Jerrie when describing their foe

Hi Sobel.

Sour Krauts came from the German attitude,that's what i learnt from my parents. Yes that's correct Krauts and Jerries were the names that the Allies called there foes Germans and the Germans called the English Tommies. After WW2,in Australia the Germans started to get there nic name Sour Krauts, for some reason the Germans were look apond as being grumpy and serious and never took a joke. Ever since then every one that i know of always referres Germans to Sour Krauts. I did not mean that Sour Krauts happend during ww2! :wink:

Ok. How do other members find funny photo's and how do they transferr the photos too the forum?
