Tea? (Part 2)

[TheDoctor]

neeeeeeeeEEEEEEEEUUUUUUUuuuuummuuuumuummm.
That's my attempt at rendering the train approaching, passing and going away from Trans Europe Express. I'm sure Kraftwerk could write that down better than I.
Kraftwerk songs are useful for learning useless German phrases.
I have never felt the need to say 'Stop Radioactivity', 'Neon Lights' or 'We are the robots'* in German. I suppose knowing 'Ein Zwie Drie Vier' could come in handy...

* Wir sind die Roboter, in case you're curious.

How many beers have you drunken this yesterday evening?

 

[Speicher]

neeeeeeeeEEEEEEEEUUUUUUUuuuuummuuuumuummm.

 

[TheDoctor]

How many beers have you drunken this yesterday evening?

How very dare you!! I gave had a small glass of Prosecco.
And several very large glasses of Cotes du Rhone
Anyway, here's Fascinating Aida on the topic of German, although this is from the singing point of view,,,

 

[Speicher]

Much as I would like to talk about Swiss railways until the early hours of the morning, I am feeling now. So and good night from me.

 

[TheDoctor]

Ich habe die meisten von einer Flasche Wein und ich bin ziemlich sauer.

Guten Nacht .

getrunken?

 

[TVC]

Wish I was in Fiji. Or on a Swiss Mountain Railway, or diving in the Maldives, or glacier bagging in Iceland, or in a Sydney restaurant. Instead I'm in a humid airless midlands post industrial city.


Bum!
