I'm very proud that I remember all the useful phrases I learned on my way to A-level German at school. Rottkapchen hat Angst vor dem Wolf. (Little Red Riding Hood is afraid of the wolf). I pulled many a Fraulein with that one.

Actually, a Bratwurst sprinkled with paprika and then ketchup, with pomme frites and a dollop of mayo on the side. Yum!

Ach, du lieber Himmel!
It's "noch" Bill, as in "loch" back of the throat and keep it open! Reminds me of driving back and forth to Granny's house with the kids when they were young and passing the loch on the way. I'd shout out "loch" and they'd have to repeat until they could say it perfectly. For a long time, when we went past a lake anywhere, someone would shout out "loch!" Very proud of my wee (big now) Australian Scots.
