Good morning @janton,

we are neighbors and we speak German (Austrian German and German German in many dialects), but the people are different everywhere.

I could ask you, if you and the Canadians were similar, and you would give me a similar answer, I assume ;)

Howdy today sir johannpiber! You wrote your comment 14 hours ago, I'm really behind. Just got in from mowing, it's shortly after noon here.
Anyway, yes I agree. There's not much difference at all between Canadians and Americans except a slight accent and they can handle cold weather!

Which fertilizer do you use, @janton? You are always mowing - I know, your property is huge ;)
OK, and what's with the Americans and the English? Don't tell me, there's also not much difference 😉

howdy again sir johannpiber! Yeah this grass grows like crazy out here, I could mow it every 4 or 5 days unless we get into a dry spell. But it's been raining about once a week which keeps things growing very fast.

Americans and English? You mean Brittish? I don't know very many of them but I think we're pretty similar, do you?

OK, then I give up - but you started this, @janton ;)
Austrians and Germans are similar, as similar as the Americans and the Brittish are.

Do you keep your grass short like an english lawn or like at a golf court? I like it, when the grass grows high like on a meadow with wildflowers and bees, and you can lay down in the grass, watching the sky, relaxing, photographing the insects ... And while writing this, I thought of the snakes and scorpions, which cannot be seen in the high grass. All right, I understand your all time mowing :)))

haha! very good sir johannpiber, you got the reason that we keep it mowed. yes, we want to take away any cover that we can.

Also, our place has no stacks of wood or old cars or pieces of equipment or anything in our yard. We have to keep the vehicles in the garage at all times too because mice get into the engine compartment and start building nests, even if you drive it! Plus, snakes can get in through the air vents.

But especially the tall grass! yes you always wear high boots if you have to walk in tall grass but generally anywhere we have to walk is mowed.
Ok, the Germans is like the Brittish would be to us. But you guys get along with Germany right?

Your property must be cleaner than my mama's kitchen ;) ... but I can really understand, why.

I can only talk for myself when I say, that I get along with the Germans. They have stupid people, just as we also have enough of them ;)
