I feel your pain with this one. I tried to watch an episode of Mon Incroyable Fiancé 2 which a friend recommended and I got that message. Luckily, there's now an unofficial version. It's very funny... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9BOeXVvSzNo Hi Phill,

And I was quizzing but am well and truly back now! How about Geschirrschpülmaschine or Gespentheuschrecke? They're good words to try! You don’t even want to know.

Do I even want to know how? Are you at uni? Or were you quizzing in cullingworth? On a random note - I want to join our uni German soc here as a friend and I have decided to go back to Deutsch. However the soc are proving very elusive so far - on the student union pages there is no listing for the soc and there isn't much in the german department. Surely it can't have just vanished? As a german speaker perhaps you can help me? Is there a secret german phrase that makes these things come back? Haha! You pulled a muscle in your arse? Do I even want to know how?

I’m hoping to study French and German at Warwick, and was interested in how you’re finding the course so far!

Also, any chance you remember what the conditions were of your original offer (the grades?)

Thanks!
