I think that Sealion succeeded! it took 70 years but its happened :-

Our roads are full of BMW's, VW,s Audis, Mercedes and Skodas.
Our Kitchens full of Bosch appliances,
Supermarkets full of German wine ,
Henning Wehn on the radio
Angela Merkel in charge o the European Union and on TV
Germans Familly in Buckingham Palace

And to cap it all flippin Seb in Scotland !!!!!   :)

QuoteHenning Wehn on the radio

I find him extremely funny on the radio, especially 'The Unbelievable Truth'. Oh and by the way Skoda were/are Czech, not German ;).

But from an area that was German/Austrian once (before we took them back) *ducks for cover*

The Sudetenland by any chance ;).

Gentlemen,

This discussion could quickly disintegrate into a historical nitpicking. Can't we just agree that Europe has been messy, map wise, forever?

I think that most of the world is messy map wise - especially in africa where the borders were drawn on a map in a meeting in london.
