In the spirit of togetherness as befits the season of goodwill to all men I thought it might be timely to assess and complement out soon to be our ex (hopefully) EU 'partners'...
Austria Switzerland’s less fashionable
neighbour. Still thinks the Austro Hungarian Empire is a thing.
Belgium Created by us. Good tank country. How
did it end up with the best race track in the World?
Bulgaria The
USSR’s favorite Cold War thugs
Croatia Part
of the Balkans. Hence Trouble
Cyprus Worst
sherry in the world
Czech Great
engineers.
Denmark Bacon
and Hamlet
Estonia Battlefield
of choice for Russia and Germany
Finland Fantastic
rally and GP drivers and fought the Reds to a standstill.
France The
place you drive through to get to Switzerland and Italy
Germany Came
second. Twice.
Greece Don’t
trust a Greek bearing gifts.
Hungary More Soviet thugs and like Austria still
think the Austro Hungarian Empire is a thing.
Ireland Highly
intelligent with a great sense of humor and Guiness.
Italy Best
food anywhere. Ferrari. Maserati. Lancia. OSCA. Need I say more?
Latvia See
Estonia above.
Luxembourg False
teeth and tax evasion
Malta Errrr?
Netherlands Invented
Capitalism. And were indirectly responsible for the Glorious Revolution.
Poland Plumbers
for hire. More excellent battlefields for Germany and Russia.
Portugal Our
oldest ally. Port.
Romania Hitler’s
oil fields and more thugs for whoever.
Slovakia Think
Czecho..
Slovenia Another
Balkan state = trouble.
Spain Lazy.
Like killing donkeys and bulls.
Sweden Abba.
Blondes. Norway with a sense of humor.
Happy Christmas and a Prosperous New Year to you all.
