Danes say sorry for Viking raids on Ireland
More than 1,200 years ago hordes of bloodthirsty Viking raiders descended on Ireland, pillaging monasteries and massacring the inhabitants. Yesterday, one of their more mild-mannered descendants stepped ashore to apologise.

Sorry we broke your church.

Status: offline 		Did you know that, in 1970, Monty Python made an original German language version of the Lumberjack Song as part of a German language special for German TV? It was their first foreign performance and led to tours in, among other locations, the USA.

Ah, I think there should be some additional apologies from

1. Britain for
Baked Beans on Toast
Deep-fried Mars Bars
Cooked mutton in peppermint sauce
British-brewed Lager
Benny Hill

2. Australia for
Dame Edna
Paul Hogan
Linda Kozlowski in THAT bathing suit (aarrrgh! buns! buns!)

3. Canada for
all their Conservative PM's, especially the one who killed the CF-105

4. the USA for
Errol Flynn winning WWII on his own
Robin Williams playing Popeye
Schlitz, Miller, and Budweiser

Any country that produces the likes of Monty Python should be forgiven its sins. However I fail to see what is wrong with beans on toast....classic British cuisine. As for the rest of your list....guilty as charged. Our humble apologies

Aussies also need to apologise for Fosters and Shane Warne - but at least they won't have to apologise for fatty for very long...looks like he might prefer to be German....

Righto! Righto! What's all this? I'm not a Fosters drinker but I had one on a hot day in London when it was the only cold beer in the pub and it tasted fantastic!

And as for Herr Warne...bloody hell! (Explanation for people from non cricket playing countries: Shane Warne is a recently retired Australian player who holds the world record for the number of batsman (batters) out. He still plays as an international player in England. He uses an old-fashioned, slow style of bowling (pitching) and is a brilliant talent but is notorious for off-field trouble).

His mum is German and he's worked out that he may be able to apply for EU citizenship which would allow his team Hampshire to play another international player in his stead, as he would then qualify as a local. Anyway, the idea has caused an outcry in Oz and has been a headline writer's dream so it looks like being shelved.

He's caused New Zealand plenty of pain over the last 15 years...eh SMK?

Cheers, Neilster

My German friends said the Monty Python German stuff is unwatchable. They learnt the lines phonetically and it shows.

Cooked very slowly, mutton is delicious. Benny Hill was a genius. Dame Edna (Barry Humphries) is brilliant (although I actually prefer another of his characters, Sir Les Patterson, cultural attaché. ). Paul Hogan's early comedy is hilarious. Errol Flynn was Tasmanian. He lived in my suburb.

Cheers, Neilster
Here's Sir Les Patterson. One of Australia's gifts to the world.
