That Sweet, Innocent Little Sausage . . .

Germany.

A wonderful place, with wonderful sights, and home of our wonderful friend, and ex-cyber employee, Niosha . . . and home of Hamburg, the only place in Germany I've visited (and a certain area of Hamburg in particular).

It was a very interesting day on Monday. As mentioned in my last blog, Drew took a small crew to this lovely country. Not only was this a marketing project, but also an excuse for everyone to have a 'pick-on-Lisa' day. And boy did she get it.

Apparently it started as soon as she was picked up at 5am that morning, when Drew accused her of being almost disastrous with her morning disorientation - happens to the best of us - and then it continued as soon as they arrived. A hired car had been arranged, but for reasons unknown to myself, their Ford Focus wasn't available, and so they had to be upgraded. Such a burden this was to Lisa. The luxuries of a normal, reliable, petrol car had to be given up, and instead she had to put up with a black BMW 320 Injection Convertible. I'm no car person, but it sound's impressive. However, it was diesel - and gave Lisa cause to moan.

Yep, she's no fan of diesel cars, but what would you drive? Ford Focus or Convertible BMW? She still hasn't lived that one down.

The day was full of little events such as this, all in the cause of Lisa's mockery, including a comment on the return plane home. At first she didn't know what the airport was, and then whilst waiting to taxi to the runway, she said - and I quote:

"I bet we're gonna fly . . . "

Erm . . . yeah!

The full comment was supposed to be somewhere along the lines of "I bet we're gonna fly home faster than what it took to get here," but it didn't come across like that, and yes, it's another moment that she will never live down.

Poor, poor Lisa. What a day she had. But was she really a victim of all this ridicule? Was she really the innocent female that had to suffer it all? Or did she instigate it, and provide the fuel for the wrath of Drew's humor? The proof, I think, is not in the pudding, it's in the German Sausage.

PS: The photo of `Lisa and her German Sausage` has now travelled further miles than Germany itself, and will be available to purchase in calender form nearer the end of the year. Lisa is now promising that revenge is sweet - a dish best served cold. This'll be good . . .

PPS: I still don't know why they actually went to Germany . . .
