Hallo, koestlich amuesiert, solche Druckfehler habe ich in Portugal schon zigtausendmal gesehen. Immer wieder koestlich. Am besten die die gedruckten Sachen, die dann ueberklebt werden. Oder am Largo do Rato gibt es ein Café, das "Don Rato" heisst und so auch auf der Tafel an der Haeuserwand steht, aber auf der Markise steht fett "Dom Rato", visuelle Luftlinie: 3 Meter. Was solls, wozu aufregen?

Lies mal den Post hier:

"From Brazil, Joe Listo writes: Brazilians and Portuguese have always joked about each other, partly because of the close relation between the two countries, and perhaps some grudge left from the past, during the colonial period. Brazilians like to depict the Portuguese as plain stupid and the latter think of Brazilians as lazy. lthough the Portuguese are not stupid in the least, on a trip I took to Lisbon two years ago I saw something that caught my attention: the bus from the airplane to the terminal had two emergency exit windows. One of them displayed the following words: “In case of emergency do not break this window”. Once in the terminal, I decided to rent a car from a local company instead of the usual Avis or Hertz. It was lunch time, and the Portuguese are known to enjoy a long, tasty meal. At the car rental counter, another sign is posted: “I’m out for lunch. Please go to the next store”. The “next store” was a Hertz office. RH: The good neighbor policy."
