I do not like it when members on my site use abbreviations

....hahahaha...... My dear it's the second time that you make me laugh ... Seens that I must follow you.

Same happen to me, for longer time. From 2003 to 2005 I was living in Vienna, and 3 times I started German lessons but for different reasons I had to stop them. 3 times I lost in total 900 Euros for the upfront payments.

So the only that I learned were "Gruss God" and "Busi" ... But my g/f talks Greek fluently.

Heh, good thing German is relatively easy as a Dutch person. Dutch and German are very alike.
Also nice topic hijack.

Sadly, Greek is not among the languages I picked up. Just the basics. Jamas!

Sadly (hehe), the one time I went to Greece (three weeks in 1997, so long ago...), I went with my girfriend. So, no chance to pick up a girl, ahm, the language properly
