I made so much a fool of myself today that I want to share it with you.

I needed to have x-ray and ultra-sonography (Doppler Scan) taken, so I headed to my favourite hospital and arranged an appointment. The nurse told me to bring some water with me.

Now, this is the real story, so I must tell you in its original language. She told me: "500 ml. küçük su getirin", which literally translates "bring 500 ml. of little/small water." Obviously for an averagely sane person (not me ) she meant a small, 500 ml. bottle of water. However, in colloquial use "küçük su" (little water) is used for piss, so I filled a 500 ml. bottle with my natural beer and went to the hospital. Every single time the nurse saw me approaching, she was having hard time not to giggle.
