Riding the gravy train
Thursday, March 29, 2007
I've dropped the shoulder, shimmied past a few diplomats and finally managed to escape the EU propaganda long enough to get to the internet.
But the bus leaves soon and I'd better be on it. The Europeans are putting on a friendly face but you can tell they're itching to explode as this bunch of Welsh jokers and journalists abuse the free wine and continually fail to show the remotest inclination of being able to turn up anywhere on time.
Still, yesterday at Wales House was interesting. Not so much a house really but a wannabe embassy where the Welsh assembly keeps its lobbyists. Still, it gave me a chance to find out a bit more on the whole 'what if' scenarios of Wales' place in Europe. More on that tomorrow.
In the meantime, I'd love to tell you about some of the after dark antics of our cherished local hacks but the beer was so nice I honestly can't remember a thing:)

I blame those funny Belgian keyboards and a monumental lack of sleep.
