Haha, that's awesome!
I love how Europe is so much less politically correct. Like in airports. Here in the US, they have 5-6 final boarding calls before the flight leaves. I like Amsterdam... "Passengers Olson and Hanson, you are delaying the flight"

Nice! Thought you cant quite beat the Samoan way of doing it: 'Get to the bloody gate or we're leaving!'. Though, most people on Samoa seem to know each other, so....

They do that here too, you hear "passengers Smith and Jones, STILL (emphasis on still LOL) delaying flight .... board immediately or you will be offloaded from this flight"
You might also hear "this is the last and absolutely final boarding call for flight...."
After Monday and Tuesday even the calendar says WTF...

Germany, i have some vivid memories particularly of dog shit on the sidewalks. It was disgusting and it takes a lot to make me frown with displeasure at other people. Friggin landmines in a lot of areas, almost epidemic.
When i visited lat May it was not as evident, but i was there for only 3 days.
I say bring on the signs !!
And yes Phil, they are funny.

Yeah I know what you mean, BUT the Germans had a good idea... Why not picking up the shit of a dog in a bag and put it into a bin...
This is not a joke... check this out:
In this nice little white box at the bottom there are the bags to collect the shit of your lovely dog what an invention

Quoting AsstChiefMark (Reply 9): We've been doing that for years in the USA. In some places, you can get a nasty fine for not picking up after your dog or horse.
Yeah, its not new here as well... and you will be fined as well... Another reason why I prefer pussies... I mean cats

We have those in the US.
I also use a leash that has a built-in receptable in it to carry a roll of bags. My dog always gives me a puzzled look when I pick the stuff up....

Germany is extremely clean (streetwise) compared to the UK. It always amazes me at just how clean it is.
Where as the first thing you see when you get to the train station at MAN is bird shit, and rubbish everywhere.

You're not helping the UK tourism board.
When i was in FRA last, it was super clean. Amazing really, but i thought it was because of the upcoming WM. Putting on a good show. How is it now Phil... still nice and clean? I also heard that the Lady mayor of FRA is behind all this with regards to having a clean and pleasant FRA.

Politically correct response to the "No Dog Shit" signs: "When will this shameless oppression of canine defecation cease? Surely, as the richest society on Earth, we can afford to build public restrooms for our most wonderful of nonhuman companions?"
Surely, indeed.

32 QFA380: That would badly suck, 1kg of pure shit. Although cows would be worse, all sloppy. You can get a fine over here is you don't clean up after your dog.
