Aircooled VW South Africa

Ag Pine....wat kan ek se????? So sweet. Baie dankie my maat.

Mine's easy.....parents are both Dutch originally and I'm a qualified diving instructor for fun!

From Wikipedia:

The word 'bugger' was originally used to describe either anal intercourse by a man with a man or woman,[8] or sexual intercourse by either a man or a woman with an animal [9], but today serves as a mild expletive and can be used to replace the word 'bugger' as a simple expletive or as a simile as in the phrase It hurts like buggery or in apparently meaningless phrases such as Run like buggery, largely equivalent to Run like hell.

Oh , this is going to get nasty......

Well I think my name is Self Explanitory. I like anything VW related.

Most people can't get their tongues around my surname so everyone calls me by the first three letters.

Are you hitting on Pierre JH? Sounds like you're looking for a reaming.

Similar to FIG as my surname is also a mouth full, Quantrill so took the Q and made TheQ as in The Man of the House. Stuck since I can remember!

1. I live in Cape Town
2. I drive a bug

Therefore CTBUG!

A friend had a XT500, and in a beer filled conversation said the bike's piston thumps instead of rotating. I drove a bug at the time and my bug thumped 4 times more often than his bike. Thus.... Thumper . (And I told him that too!)

The name stuck, and I gave it to every bug I drove since. When I needed a name for this forum, it was easy......

In the Disney movie Bambi, the blue rabbit was called Thumper, he had nothing to do with it....I think.

Need I explain?

I was originally Blitzkrieg_Beetle, named after the magazine feature that got me hooked onto ACVWs.

Then, I later asked eben to change it to Blitzkrieg, because I didn't have a Beetle, but a Type 3 instead

My name makes no sense in English (Hi, I'm lightningwar ), but "blitzkrieg" and everything else associated with Blitz sounds so cool. I also have a huge admiration for the German Army and their general tactics and symbols that were used during the Second World War, so blitzkrieg I am

A long long time ago........
In a Galaxy far far away.....

Mine came from helping my grandfather fix a stove when I was about 7 years old. Me being the helpful idiot that i am tried to use the tester on the live cables when granddad wasn’t watching.... Only killed a couple of the unnecessary brain cells and granddad was in trouble with grandma because how could he do this to her favourite grandson....

Awesome guys. We have quite a colourfull bunch here hey. Hahaha lol at vader.

I don't get it?

I thought the fatherly role was a lot more common in our every-day society?
