Ist ja hier wie dieser Monty Python Sketch: The Four Yorkshire Men:
"Oh, we never had a cup. We used to have to drink out of a rolled up newspaper.
The best we could manage was to suck on a piece of damp cloth.
But you know, we were happy in those days, though we were poor.Because we were poor. My old Dad used to say to me, "Money doesn't buy you happiness, son". (Wie wahr, aber Roccos machen enorm glücklich, Anm. der Red.

)
I was happier then and I had nothin'. We used to live in this tiny old house with great big holes in the roof.
House! You were lucky to live in a house! We used to live in one room, all twenty-six of us, no furniture, 'alf the floor was missing, and we were all 'uddled together in one corner for fear of falling.
Eh, you were lucky to have a room! We used to have to live in t' corridor!
Oh, we used to dream of livin' in a corridor! Would ha' been a palace to us. We used to live in an old water tank on a rubbish tip. We got woke up every morning by having a load of rotting fish dumped all over us! House? Huh.
Well, when I say 'house' it was only a hole in the ground covered by a sheet of tarpaulin, but it was a house to us.
We were evicted from our 'ole in the ground; we 'ad to go and live in a lake.
You were lucky to have a lake! There were a hundred and fifty of us living in t' shoebox in t' middle o' road.
...
And you try and tell the young people of today that ..... they won't believe you. "
Trifft die Sache aber irgendwie doch, wenn ich mir diesen Thread so durchlese. Daher aufhören mit Angeben, Pott unterm Rocco und gut ist *dröhn*
