    The people in southern Germany are called 'Schwaben', but some call them 'Schwotten' because they're so tight with their money. Germans suspect they're Scots, expelled from Scotland for being too tight with money.

    By the way, how to recognise that your house is burgled by an Australian is the three spelling mistakes in the 'thank you' note.

    (That corresponds with the reality about the low level education of Australians).
