Hi,
Today I have received the Aku Ankka 50th Anniversary stamps from the
Finnish post (thanks to the very kind Mr Hiekkavuo working there). I had
also ordered a set of postcards with Disney motifs. Since I do not speak
any Finnish, however, I cannot understand what is written on them. I
would appreciate it very much, if any of you kind Finns out there would
be willing to translate the texts.
1st motif: Donald labels some post packages and says, with a mean
expression on his face: Iloinen tervehdys ankkalinnasta!
2nd motif: Scrooge, swimming in his money bin, says: Aah! Olen jälleen
rikas ja onnellinen! Nuorruin vuosikymmeniä!
3rd motif: Goofy, addressing the viewer, says: Hei, mä keksin ...
4th motif: Daisy, hitting Donald with her bag, says: Toden totta!
5th motif: The Beagle Boys, driving a car and looking very frightened,
say: Eijeijei! (Meaning "Oh, oh, oh!" I suppose).
And, if it is not too much to ask, maybe you can also translate what
else is written on the package containing the postcards:
On the back of the package: Pakkaus sisältää viisi Aku Ankka-Aiheista
postikorttia.
Inside the package: Nyt on syytä olla höyhenet pörhöllään! Aku
Ankka-lehti on tuonut unohtumattoman hauskoja lukuhetkiä suomalaisille
jo so vuoden ajan. Juhlan kunniaksi Disney-hahmot riemastuttavat
viidessä hauskassa postikortissa. Lähetä iloinen tervehdys ystävälle tai
käytä kortit omaksi iloksesi!
(Please forgive me that I have got the use of upper case / lower case
letters wrong. Most of the texts are written in upper case letters only.)
Thank you very much in advance
Sven
