A missing letter

... can make the difference.

My brother told me some weeks ago how one of the saleswomen came over to him, very excited. She just had heard of the founding of a bog body in their area! Strangely though, she found nothing in the written news.

Turned out it was just a bog oak!

Bog oak: Mooreiche
Bog body: Moorl eiche

So, wenn I had a first look at the news today...




We have bog bodies for sure here!
Ingo wanted to go and see the Mummy-exhibition (german) anyway and so we went.

Kids sure have vivid imaginations and the sight of a harmless mummy like this one...



Well, there was a dull thump.
It was too much for one of the visiting kids, obviously!

Bet poor kiddo will get called names for a while! ;-)
