Following heavy weather a ship, the Ocean Fortune, is taking in water, and the Captain decides to send out a distress call....

"Mayday, mayday, mayday...... This is Ocean Fortune, we are sinking, repeat we are sinking."

No response and message repeated "......We are sinking, we are sinking"

After a while a German ship responds ....

"Ocean Fortune, zhis is german schipp Gunda Oldendorff. Jawohl, we can hear zhat you are zhinking, aber was are you zhinking about??
