How do you know that?


Chapter one. "Bertie arrives in Germany for the first time ever.. ...."

And sidles up onto a stool in a two tap, ten stool bar in the train
station. It's a beautiful sunny early summer's day and it's the first
oportunity he has to try a real German beer from a real German tap in
Germany. I can't remember what type beer it was but it was just
beeeeuuutiful. I drank it at leisure and asked the barkeep for another
( auf Deutch) "NEIN" came the reply. Well, I'm a bit taken back I have
to tel you. It's about three in the afternoon, I wasn't drunk and there
were several other patrons sitting leisurely drinking their beer. A bit
confused., I asked again in my best school german for another. THe
crewcutted bartender, as close a double for Gert Frobe ( goldfinger) as
you're going to find shouts back again, "NEIN". he's obviously getting a
bit perturbed, so i try a third time. He's getting purple now and still
refusing to give me "Ein anderes beir" . Well this went on for a few
more minutes and eventually I discover I'm asking for another
~different~ beer and they only have one brand on draft.... You think he
could have figured it out....


Stay tuned for the next chapter, "Bertie is nearly put on a chain gang
in Wurms"..
