Dej, after several rounds and toasts to our own cleverness the idea of the Dodo bird as the club emblem had us in stitches. Aaaaaah, the simple joy of viewing the world through beer goggles. Now as to your vote for 'Per Dementia Ad Astra' as our motto: In the sober light of day I must confess I like it much better. I can order up another case of letterhead and ring up the foundry to inform them of the alterations. In for a penny, in for a pound, I say.

Ah, I think I came back from a visit to the gents and thought we were still laughing at the story of the military policeman,the rubber duck and the forty foot ladder. But now you explain it, the madness appeals...

"Per dementia ad astra" is perfectly fine - and as we just talk about it:

does anyone know where my German uniform went?

The military police wouldn't give me any further explanations than that they had to arrest me,

cause I had tried to infiltrate a women's sauna. Back on the German side, I received very

strange looks, cause I was only wearing that swimming suit with the stitched-on words:

"By Appointment of Her Majesty Queen Victoria". I will keep it, although I woudn't wear it

in public anymore.
