    Hello from Austria :)

    hello,

    my name is Manuela and I'm from Austria.
    I'm a 27 year old student and live with my boyfriend, my 4 cats and my Labrador Cooper in a flat.

    First of all I've to say that my English is not the best but I hope it will become better [:)]

    Cooper is my little sunshine, he is 3 years old and lives since 2003 with me - I would say that we've a very special relationship.
    My cats, Gina and Tequila, they are brother and sister, are almost 5 years old. Since last autum Nicki and Benni live with me, they should stay here for 6 months for care, but now Nicki will stay with us. Benni, the beautiful white but deaf cat, will move to my friend. He will get a new friend, a white cat, also deaf.

    So, thats the most important things about me [:D]

    I'm looking forward to many interesting discussions.

    best regards [;)]

    The site is written in German - but you find Pics about my Dog under "Meine Fellnase" and pics about my cats under "Meine Samtpfoten".

    Ok, and some pics from my fish under "Aquarien" [:D]

    Hello Manuela and welcome to the forum!
     
    Great, another person from "my side" of the ocean [:D].
    Just read another post from you and when you mean
    "gruenen Pansen" by rumen...I found out that it`s called tripe, ich hab`s auch nur im online-Woerterbuch so gefunden, man hat mir hier aber weitergeholfen [;)]
    (The Online-dictionary only knows rumen, not tripe but people here helped me)
    People are really nice here and maybe we can help each other in finding the right words.
     
    Bis denne!

    thank you for receiving me so well :)

    I read some threads and the more I read the more I recognize that my English is really very, very bad [&o]

    i hope you'll be lenient toward me, I don't won't to know, how much nonsense I'm writting *lol*

    Manuela, welcome!

    Believe it or not, your English is better than much of the English I see typed by our younger folks!

    Ich kann Deutsch, but it has been a long time since I've spoken! Learned in college and was in Hamburg for a few months where everyone thought I was either German or Canadian, LOL. Apparently I'm too "nice" to be an American! [:)]

    This is a great group of folks. You'll enjoy this forum.

    Bis spät!

    @Susa

    oh, finding the right words is really difficult - especially there are huge differents between BE and AE [&o]
    I looked the word tripe up and found out that there are at least two words like in German:
    tripe means "Kutteln" and rumen means "Pansen" *G*

    I hope I'll can read an write here without looking every word up in the dictionary [&o]

    und - bist du auch im gesundehunde forum? [:D]

    Hi and welcome!
    • Gold Top Dog
    Welcome Manu!  Your English is pretty good.  Don't worry too much about it being "bad".  There are some people that say they speak English & you still need a translator to understand what they are trying to say.  You're doing great!!
    Cooper is a very handsome boy!  Give him some scratches from me.
