Hughmer Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 When I got my Van Bitz alarm recently I suggested to Eddie that maybe his "sophisticated alarm device" sticker ought to include Greek & Polish messages, - as it covers most other European languages. He wasn't that enthusiastic about the idea so while we were in Greece last week I asked my neighbours for their input. I composed this message with the Greek Charactars but when uploaded they all turned to Custard so I've attached a screeen grab with the message my neighbours proposed. We'll be off to Greece again next year but before I copy this in my screen, - for all I know it might say something quite horrid, - do we have any Greek scholars who could verify or correct the following message: If you want the editable text/Greek charactars please message me and I'll send it If you can offer any corrections/improvement please do.

J9withdogs Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 I think you ought to get it checked out properly - otherwise it could cause huge problems with the locals if it says something dodgy (lol) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BGD Posted October 4, 2007 Share Posted October 4, 2007 Have you an idea what you are advertising when you put this sticker in your window? The actual translation is: "Please burgle me, I have lots of lovely things inside this place which you can trade for guns, or a UK passport, or very hard drugs" (Joke!!!) Cheers, Bruce.

puerto Posted October 4, 2007 Share Posted October 4, 2007 hi there, i have had a go at translating the best i can from various sites etc, but without a greek keyboard its a nightmare. but as far as i can work out, the start is something like, warning, this vehicle has complete protection from ......??? an / one ....??? i know that this is a little vague, but at least you can complare with what you have been told it is supposed to say .. i hope this helps a little, what is it supposed to say by the way, perhaps i can have another search from english to greek and see what it comes up with.. can you tell im bored today?
