Beginning German

I just booked on a Beginning German Course starting next week and got asked if I was a guitarist...

Not sure what that has to do with learning how to say and understand key phrases like:

"Bend zee knees"
"Faster!"
"Lean forward"
"Not like that"

and of course...

"Eine Flasche Gluhwein"

No, no. Just wear a badge saying ich bin ein Englander then they know which language to scream at instruct you in. Much less hassle. (Although German is a great language if you want to learn for the sake of it. Any language with the word gummibaum in it just has to be!)

Ich habe schwien gehaubt!

I think that's right, anyway it means something to Berliners.
