Top Gears JCs omtale av Norge (og ML320...)

[marcos_eirik]

Jeremy Clarkson har vært i Norge (igjen) og testet nye Mercedes ML320, som vanlig har han lite biltestestoff i artikkelen sin og my om noe annet, denne gangen er det lettere humoristiske beskrivelser av Norge, dog noe generaliserende men alikevel morsome. Jeg syns han treffer spikeren på hodet like godt hvergang...

 

Wiggle your hips and drive like a Norwegian

 

Norway completely ruined my bladder. Normally I can drink a pint or so without needing to visit the lavatory, but up there among the elk and the permafrost it was so damn cold that an above-average dew point was enough to keep me at the urinal for up to six hours at a time.

And I don’t want to lower the tone over your breakfast table, but it wasn’t only my bladder that shrank in the chill. This makes life difficult when you’re wearing long johns, jeans and heavily padded waterproof overstrides.

You might imagine, then, that everyone in Norway would have off-roaders. They don’t. In 10 days I didn’t see one, and that’s because up there a Land Rover Discovery costs more than £100,000. So you buy a normal two-wheel-drive car . . . and cope.

Trist og sant...

I learnt after a few days that the Norwegian for “parking” is “parkering”, but this doesn’t work with other verbs. The Norwegian for “talking”, for instance, is not “talkering”. And if you say you want to go drinkering, they won’t have a clue what you’re on about.

 

:D:D:D
