The way we still go on about the war.

Just for personal amusement, the other day in work I greeted one older customer with "Guten Morgen, Mein Herr!"

The response went something like this......."Don't give me any of that bloody nonsense! I remember that bloody shower in the war......." Cue five minute rant about how he never buys German cars, etc. 

If a German had actually heard all this, he'd have been most bemused, probably.

And every time England plays Germany in a game of football.....the tabloids seem to react as if it is a re-run of World War 2, hahaha.

The amount of baby boomers, born after WW2, who do this.

Do  they pretend not to notice or are they just so used to you doing it?  What was the reaction first time they realised? Were they a bit shocked or intrigued or impressed?

They never notice I guess because they are too polite to look. They know of course that I do it and just think it is funny - I guess that is the British way. They were all a little shocked at first i think, but fully accepting right from the start as soon as they knew.
