Moin alltohoop,

bi us in Noord-Düütschland is dat so Ouzo, dat wi een in´n April
schickt. Sülvst wat in de Kranten steiht kannst denn nich glöven. In
Polen gifft dat sowat ook. Daar nöömt se dat "primaaprilisowy żart" un
roopt denn "prima aprilis", wenn se een tarrt hebbt. De Englänners hebbt
ehren "April-fool-day". Is düsse Bruuk op de heele Wereld begäng orrer
is dat man blots daar, woneem de oolen Neddersassen un ehre Afleggers
huust hebbt?

Kumpelmenten
