GUEST,JTT | BS: Irish Slang: 'The Germans' (114* d) | RE: BS: Irish Slang: 'The Germans' | 25 Aug 13 |
The Daily Mail online has a feature headlined "We shall fight them on the beaches..." - about German tourists arriving in the UK. It's a slightly bitter joke across Europe that German tourists get up early and rush down to the edge of the sea or pool to distribute towels on the beach loungers with the most convenient location, to say "dibs on these"; other nationalities arrive down to see huge numbers of empty loungers with towels on them so no one else can use them. |
