The Swiss and Germans should get along quite well. German is an official language in Switzerland, they share the same kind of geography, the list goes on. Hell, the Germans even let the Swiss off during World War 2, which is more than could be said for virtually every other neutral nation at the time. However, it seems the Swiss just don’t like German sausage. Especially when it is waggling around in their faces.

The whole problem is that German nudists have taken to hiking through the Swiss countryside while wearing nothing but boots, socks and backpacks. More and more Krauts are turning up every year to experience the cool, fresh breeze of the mountains on their nether regions, which is perturbing the traditionally reserved Swiss on a level they do not appreciate.

One town, Appenzell Inner Rhodes, has gone as far as to convene the few people who actually live there for a meeting to decide on the fate of anyone caught walking around ‘experiencing nature’ in an all-too-intimate fashion, with the final decision arrived at being a £120 fine (I presume no smacked bottom in this case).

Apparently the reason the Germans like the area so much is because it is so peaceful and one of the less well travelled areas of the Alps, thus giving them the maximum level of freedom to waggle their bits at passers-by. Well, this will be no more as the Swiss say ‘no thankyou’ to a bit of German sausage.

One thing does make me think though… What if some form of incident happened during one of these hikes? You aren’t exactly well protected and, well, anything could happen. A passing squirrel could take fancy, for instance, or a very far away bird might think there is an all-you-can-eat worm buffet…
