quotable quote
Every now and then I come across a very quotable quote on an Internet BB, this one from a BMW forum:
Quote:
Heaven is where the police are British, the chefs Italian, the mechanics German, the lovers French, and it is all organized by the Swiss.
Hell is where the police are German, the chefs British, the mechanics French, the lovers Swiss, and it is all organized by the Italians.

HOW TRUE

Having done business and traveled in Europe I agree...especially with the British cooking part.

British cuisine is an oxymoron.
But the corner chippy always ROCKED!

The worst thing I have ever eaten is a full Ulster breakfast. Also, they outlawed newspaper as a lining for fish and chips as a health hazard.
