In Bavaria? Didnt know they even had a lotto

Wow thats a great picture. At first I thought maybe you distracted your boss long enough to sneak out but now I see it's an old pic. *sigh* Oh well, I'm sure there are plenty of nice days coming up here shortly. Just call in sick the day after you make a big sale.

In Bavaria? Didnt know they even had a lotto

 

Hm... actually you're right, we don't have a separate one of our own, so I was refering to the German lottery

 

What we do have though is the "Staatliche Bayerische Losbrieflotterie", but I've no clue how to translate that

 

It's an instant lottery with winning and non-winning game tickets, of the "losbrief" type. No clue how to translate that either

 

When you open it, it either says "We're Sorry" or stuff like "You win 1 Euro or another free ticket". There's rumours it also occassionally says stuff like "You win 5 Euro" or even more (up to 50.000 I think), but I've never seen one of those

"Staatliche Bayerische Losbrieflotterie"

Seems to translate as, "National Bavarian postcard lottery" (Does this make any sense?)

Hm... not really

 

Losbrief is an amalgam of "Los" and "Brief". Los may be translated "Lot" in english (not 100% sure) and Brief in that context maybe as "Envelope"

 

Maybe it would translate into "National Bavarian enveloped lot lottery" or something like that...

I didnt win the lotto as you may have guessed.... There's always next week... Hope your Bravarian ticket was better... We have scratch off tickets here too... My mom won $250 dollars last month with one! I dont play very often but when I do, I usually get the free ticket one... and the free ticket ends up being a dud.... hee hee...

 

Speaking of Bravarian .... got any good pastry you can send?

I'm in need of a coffee break.....

 

SI

Oha... I fear any pretzels or else I could send would come in way too late
