Peter,

>>My Friesian roots prompt me to ask: how you would say that in Dutch? ;-)

>Je weet nooit hoe een mug een olifant vangt.

>But beware here, "Friesland" is the only part of Holland where they use a language really nobody understands unless you go to lessons for it.

>So now the question to you : how you'd put this in "Fries" ?

Ah, but my 'roots' are from two generations back. I've heard my paternal grandmother speak Fries (over 30 years ago), but never learned more than a few words that occasionally creep into family conversations.

Thanks for the translation.
