Cool link ive just found, Mini language guides

its on the website of the company ive worked for for the last 6 months but ive only junt found them!

Theres some interesting languages there, but Unfortunately they are only useful if you speak German! the english section of the site says under construction, so im not sure if making english versions is gonna be one of my jobs over the next few months

will definitely come in handy for me on my trip to eastern europe though

on a side note...i saw this really cool picture book in the bookshop the other day, it had a picture every word that you could possibly need in a foreign country, for those times where you really have no way of communicating! it even had a picture of somebody being mugged! ( i wasnt sure if that was for if you run out of money and want to mug someone in a foreign country, or if it was to explain to someone if you get mugged )

Yeah, we have a little mini-version of that, little pictures on a piece of card that folds up to about credit card size. It has come in handy a few times...

I don't know if there's a picture of a mugger, and anyway, I guess if they got my wallet, they'd have my card. Oh well.
