Anyone speak german?

I posted this in another thread if you want the whole story, but babblefish gives me a weird, fortune cookie sounding translation. What does this mean in this context (written in a notebook by a friend):
viele liebe grusse!!!
I had so much fun today, I'm gonna miss you!"

what's the social context as well? is it a popular saying, is it something friends say or friends who dig each other say? be honest, if the answer is "she's saying - let's bake cookies,and i'll always think of you as a gay friend" say so!

Why don't you just ask the girl? It would be good small talk.

Maybe PM Klixxer?
I don't know grusse, but I'd translate it as "much love" and then whatever grusse means.

 

[spidey07]

I think literally it is "much love to god"

OH, I thought of that but though smiling and putting the notebook away would be much slicker and classier.

Don't try too hard or anything, now

Viele Liebe Grusse = Many heartfelt greetings

It is generally used for people who are friends as a common friendly closing statement.

I think it says:

I think you would look good with a small mustache.

I'm a little rusty, but it's something about making spaetzels with happy friends.

Many dear greetings

Many love greeting

A lot of dear greeting

Three different sources came up with the above translations, but you get the drift, right?

Murban135 got it on the nose. The English equivilant is 'See ya later.'

EDIT: okay, so that is the southern American equivilant.
