Tintin Forums

Hello everbody
I am in need of help. There is one quote from a book I am looking for. I need to know which book it is from. I have tried to translate it from swedish to english my english is not so good but i think you will know witch book it is anyway.

The quote is like this.
Haddock -I am getting thirsty of listen, Whiskey?
Tintin -no thank you! You know that i dont drink alcohol.
Haddock - you've only yourself to blame, cheers.

In swedish the quote is this.
Haddock -jag blev riktigt törstig bara av att lyssna. hahaha en whiskey?
Tintin -Nej, tack! Du vet väl att jag aldrig dricker sprit.
Haddock -ja skyll dej själv, skål då

I think that's from Picaros.

Your quote is on the first page in Picaros

All that talking makes me thirsty... Here, have a whisky... No, thanks. Not for me... You know that... Oh well... Cheers

Thank you, it is from Picaros!

Of course it does. The first albums were published 1960, but it din't succed, so 1968 there was a new attempt. All 24 albums have been published and we have a brand new translation from 2004-05. Sweden is also the only country in the world which have audio-recordnings of every album from Tintin in the Congo to Tintin and the Picaros. The Benoit Peeters and Michael Farr books are translated and even the new Tintin at sea.

We have the the two movies, Golden Fleece and Blue Oranges with swedish subtitles and all Belvision and Nelvana episodes dubbed.

Tintin has been published in newspapers, weekly magazines and regular comics since the 40's in Sweden, so I would definitely say that Sweden is a major player in most things related to Tintin.

Now in august there's a brand new radio-theatre starting.

Sorry if this is off topic.

Mind you Pokemon, Swedes have got everything a man need but first of all they've got the best and most intelligent neighbours of the world. Eller hur Hafling och Labradorgatan? :)
