If anyone was following the fun and games last month in France and the Netherlands before their votes on the EU constitution, you may remember that one of the 'issues' that 'galvanised' the non vote in France was the fear of hordes of Polish plumbers flooding into the French workforce (umm, hate to disappoint you guys, but Poland IS already in the EU, if it were Serbs, Ukrainians, Bulgarians or Romanians, yeah the door is still closed to them, but Poland, hmm already in - how do you say dickheads in French LOL).
Anyways, the Polish tourist authority has decided to play with the idea of their plumbers, a new advertising campaign to lure the French to Warsaw shows a hunk of a guy in plumbing outfit (no bum crack in sight, sorry ladies) saying he's staying in Poland and to come visit. Very witty LOL.
Just a quickie, can't find an appropriate story to segue into - well, there is funny with the European constitution and the whole EU project, and there si the whole obvious thing - Waterloo 190 years ago with the French and British still arguing at the summit they had over the weekend, just up the road in Brussels. Well, I was going to link to the Economist's take on this, but it's subscriber content LOL.
