It’s part of an ongoing project that’ll expand as the year goes on!

Barabbas to the Future…
Did Barabbas Loins predict the future of Barnaby Joyce?
"Dummheit" (foolishness) really is "gefährlich" (fatal) 😉
Who would decorate a broomstick for a #HalloweenParty? 🧹

Ah, yes, a Dutch #AgathaChristie reader!

(Looking forward to the no doubt spooktacular second Hallowe’en #SwingingChristies episode!)

Voters in last year's #NFC100 were mainly from Europe (73%). So even though we are an Australian site, it's not an Aussie countdown! So far this year, 69% are European, 19% Rest of World and 12% Australian. Vote here: www.aussievision.net/post/the-eur...

Yes, I’ve noticed that of all the languages I cover Spanish tends to be the one which most often goes for a literal translation (even if some of the meaning of the English is lost!).
Death visits the Dentist is great!
But the Dutch of that novel is even better: Death in the Torture Chair. 😬
