i stumbled across [url= http://www.toytowngermany.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=223415&st=0 ]THIS[/url] thread on an expat forum whilst looking for a decent curry house in munich.
it would appear that a young girl has been - and currently is - standing outside a swish munich cafe holding a brolly and a yellow rose.

i might jog along this afternoon and see what's up.

copy and paste this link into your browser.

i'm guessing it's an art project of some sort. or she has lost a bet.

Weird. What makes you say its a "young girl"? Looks like an old woman to me.

Don't suppose they thought to ask what she was doing?

Hmm, odd.
Maybe she's trying to become the next "Internet phenomenon"®

according to that thread she doesn't speak when spoken to. the police came along at one point and she moved on, but that's the only time she has reacted to anyone.

people on that thread are promising hi-jinx at 3:30 local time

Just wait. It won't be pervy, but I think what Boba and I are going to do around 3:30 or so will be humorous enough to make up for its lack in perviness. :p

Looks like she is pregnant to me, might be trying to win back the father that's just jilted her with a baby on board?

Maybe she intends to stand there as her baby grows and we can all see it, as some kind of statement the nature of which will be revealed to us later.

Maybe she's going to have the baby on that spot?

It's a piece of performance art designed to confuse people on internet fora.

Maybe it's a less aggressive version of the burning monk protest..? A Joan of Arc type thing.. If she's still there in another 5 days she's gonna get quite poorly..

Maybe she's staying there until the logo thread reaches a satisfactory conclusion..?
