RE: Hi Steemians! I am @swissclive, the youngest ever poster on Steemit.
Oh the giant Flugelhorns!
Oh the Alps! (Edelweiss, or Edelpurple, love it)
Welcome, Clive, but if I call you Karl, it's because the first Swiss I ever met was a farmer named Karl who never lost the accent
Ich liebe die Schweiz!
Karl? That’s an unusual name for a Swiss. Almost all Swiss men are called Hans, or Peter. The rest are called Hans-Peter.
What was Karl’s wife’s name? All Swiss girls are called “Heidi”. If you come across one called “Olga” its probably just a foreign gold-digger.
Karl and Bertha Walther - she might have been German. I'm not sure.
Hans/Peter! Love it!
