LONDON: (AFP) British tourists have left the residents of one charming Austrian village effing & blinding by constantly stealing the signs for their oddly named village.
While British visitors are finding it hiliarious, the residents of
Fucking are failing to see the funny side.
Only one kind of criminal ever stalks the sleepy 32 house village near Salzburg on the German border, cheeky British
tourists armed with a sense of humour & a screwdriver.
But the local authorities are hitting back & with the signs
now set in concrete. police chief Kommandant Schmidtberger is on the lookout.
"We will not stand for the Fucking signs being removed,"
the officer said.
"It may be very amusing for you British, but Fucking is simply Fucking to us. What is this big Fucking joke! It is
puerile."
Local tourist guide Andreas Beehmueller said it was only the British that had a fixation with Fucking.
"The Germans all want to see the Mozart house in Salzburg," he explained.
"Every American seems to care only about The Sound of Music (the 1965 film shot around Salzburg).
The occasional Japanese wants to see Hitler's birthplace in Braunau.
"But for the British, it's all about Fucking."
Guesthouse manager Austgustina Lindlbauer described the village's breathtaking lakes, forest & vistas.
"Yet still there is this obsession with Fucking," she said.
"Just this morning i had to tell an English lady who stopped by that there were no Fucking postcards.":P
