grassy arse.

going to revert to normal format if nobody minds and ask a mickey mouse question.

mickey mouse is called something that sounds like "mickey mouse" in every country but two. one is sweden where he is called musse pigg, which is the other?

I've absolutely no idea, but I'm going to guess Russia (would he be called Mikhail Mousecovite?)

..

by the way, I'm not sure if this is just a Scottish thing, but would you use the word Mickey Mouse to desribe something that is worthless?? e.g. the Worthington Cup is a Mickey Mouse cup?

not russia but the answedoes have political relevance.
my old man says that the intertoto is a mickey mouse cup too.

Would it be Ireland then, cos a Mick is a slang term for an Irish person?

(actually, the more I think about that, the more absurd it sounds. Especially since I use dto live there).

nope, in ireland he is called mickey mouse and i have just found out that in russia he is ????? ????

Mikhail Mouse?

Right. I don't want to have to cut and paste a list of every country in the world again, but by golly I will if I have to.

Next guess: Japan.

afraid not, in japan he is called ???????' (Mikk? Mausu)

can you see the foreign characters? my screen can't cope with foreign script

Cardinal Sin · Post by **Cardinal Sin** » Mon Jul 24, 2006 4:18 pm

Nope. I can't.

I thought you were posing additional questions where I had to guess the names of cartoon characters in languages I don't speak.

Next guess: Cuba.

Istenem · Post by **Istenem** » Mon Jul 24, 2006 4:24 pm

okay don't guess any more countries which don't use normal letters because it is not them.
in cuba he is called el raton mickey but the logic is about right

Istenem · Post by **Istenem** » Mon Jul 24, 2006 4:58 pm

Cardinal Sin · Post by **Cardinal Sin** » Mon Jul 24, 2006 5:04 pm

Ah oui. Is it mon homeland, le France?

~Where he might be called Michel Souris? (although that might mean Michael Smile)

Istenem · Post by **Istenem** » Mon Jul 24, 2006 5:10 pm

the coutry in question is in europe and when mickey was born was in throes.
