Hi All, Hard to believe that a member of Belle and Sebastian (uh?) is actually releasing new product in 3 week's time, huh? There is a possibility that the debate following Peter's Witz about German compound nouns is becoming too Ernst Udet which I will now render a certainty. The Luftwaffe's principal fighter in the Battle of Britain was designed by Willi Messerschmitt & was referred to in England as the Messerschmitt or (Me.) 109. Hence all German fighters of the time being called Messerschmitts by the British public. If you want to get even more interesting you can enter the debate as to whether it should be more correctly known as the Bf.109, after the Bayerische Flugzeugwerke which manufactured it. The other day Ally (McBeal, not 96) exclaimed: "I gave him Carsmile!"
