Here's the translation;

"Wenn ist das Nunstück git und Slotermeyer? Ja! Beiherhund das Oder die Flipperwaldt gersput!"

Reminds of me of a mums lunch last week.

I decided to join the mums since it was only a short walk from the house, being the only male there felt a little awkward for about a minute.
