That was a laugh out louder!

not to put a damper on all the corny puns but I think
graangebied is more correctly translated as simply: grain field.

And that does look more like wheat than corn, anyway... I've seen a bit here in Kansas. And, I'm guessing that in the next field is hops. The beer drinkers would have his guts-for-garters if he had mowed that down!

on the Kornpad in Dussen grey Mercedes the corn field
had ridden into area car. On the spot the agents found a completely confused man, who drove rondjes
with its car constantly by the corn field.

:p

there only looks to be one entrance point. Did one car do all that?

Edit: okay, looking closely I can see another possible entrypoint on the far right. I was wondering why he went around in circles so much if they weren't chasing him.

lumberjim · 06-26-2007, 02:18 PM

didn't consider that maybe the chasing car followed him in...using the same path?

Well, at first he had a simple job to do. When the coppers showed, things got messy.

I thought that in Europe all field grains are considered corn.

Our corn is specified as Indian Corn.

That does look a lot more like a wheat field to my eyes.

I believe that the soil and weather requirements for corn are sufficiently restrictive that you can't actually grow it well anywhere but in the United States.

How did he end up crashed in the hedge at the bottom of the field to the left of the cornfield? There aren't even any tracks leading there.

I understood that, in Olde English, corn is commonly used to denote the most prevalent grain crop of the region. "Indian" corn is sweetcorn to Brits. (We generally only get the yellow variety). Cornfields (with or without crop circles) in the UK are usually wheat.

and yes, that's amazing.

Can't find any pics of the maze we went to last year, but it wasn't dissimilar to that mess. Here's a video of the local news item about it with a brief aerial shot of the whole thing...
