In colloquial German: "Ej, lass' mal stecken" or "Ej, lass' mal gut sein". ("leave it sticking [where it was; don't pull it out]" or "let it be good; leave it be [the way it was because that was already] good"). Or "Jetzt reicht's!" / "Jetzt reicht's aber langsam!" ("Now it is enough!" / "Now it's slowly be(com)ing enough!") Cheers, -- Philip Newton <philip.newton@...>
