RE: AW: off topic: anyone form Amsterdam, Holland / other major e

I had a friend who mistakenly left her purse on a bus stop bench somewhere in Switzerland (I'm not sure of the city). By the time she'd realized it and gotten back to the bus stop, 4 hours had passed. Her purse was still there, with everything and all the money still in it.

Cheers!,
JoJo

You're in for a surprise Rachel,
The Swiss are well known jokers. Switzerland is often called "the prank capital of Europe".
Ladies toilets are labelled "Gentlemen". Gentlemen's toilets are labelled "Kodak moment photo opportunity".
Cars drive on the left side of the road except for blue cars wich must drive on the left.
Dogs and cats are, by convention, dyed red during the summer.

BTW I lost my sunglasses in Switzerland in 1994 so if anyone found them can they get in touch.

Mike

PS You can probably tell that I'm between coffees right now.
