Nude blonde, gold stilettos and a Ferrari...

BERLIN - A mysterious blonde paid a visit to a petrol station shop in the small eastern German town of Doemitz on Sunday - wearing nothing but a pair of golden stilettos and a thin gold bracelet.

The tall, slender woman strolled into the shop in the town of Doemitz on the warm afternoon and bought cigarettes, petrol station employee Ines Swoboda told Reuters yesterday.

"I wasn't surprised because she's come in naked before - she's a very nice woman," Swoboda said, adding none of the other customers was bothered. The woman could have faced charges of creating a public disturbance if anyone had complained.

A quick-witted customer did, however, snap pictures of the woman believed to be about 30 years old as she walked back to a waiting Ferrari and climbed into the passenger seat. Several of those photos appeared in the German media on Monday.

Overheated residents shed their clothes
In another incident, two Austrians and a German were fined for cycling naked along the banks of the River Danube in Serbia, where the heatwave which has been plaguing Europe for the past few weeks has sent temperatures soaring.

"Police arrived after being alerted by passers-by," said police spokesman Stevan Krstic in the northern city of Novi Sad.

Temperatures in Serbia and other parts of the Balkans have hovered stubbornly for the past week at around 40 degrees Celsius.

The three men were brought before a magistrate on charges of disrupting public peace and order and were fined 10,000 dinars ($213) each.
