#1 Wander in around 10,at noon head off to a 3-4 hour "working lunch"(per Margot's blog),then head to the sauna to relieve stress for an hour and a half(we have no choice,that's how long we are required to use it!),it's now about 5,and another successful day of hard work making Europe work is over. Where do I sign up?

#6 Wouldn't it be fun if about 500 of the sods were having their sauna when the door became latched and the temperature went up to about 250 F? They could thereafter be referred to as "The Lobstermen from Marseilles".

#7 God, what a bunch of pathetic losers.

What's next - instructions on where and how to breathe? :-(

#9 tt - I'm sure it will involve fact-finding missions to the world's toniest resorts (first class, of course), committies to study whether they should study whether to appoint a committee, etc.

Ad nauseum.

And the rule, when it is finally promulgated, will be 17 pages long. In each language.

Forget about the jihadis in their midst - the Euros will regulate themselves out of existence.
