The Belgian Invasion
Old Fat One
Your retaliation has been scuppered - No more Eurostar till after Christmas. Obviously the Belgiques got wind of your masterplan.
However, I think they would have thwarted the Brits in the first place. Using their secret weapons, readily available at all good stores and pubs on the mainland i.e. excellent beers (real Belgiques don't drink Stella), and chocolates, what chance would U.K. stand.

I think you were taking a snipe at us Paddys. If it was a joke then I have bitten. Re WW2 and the Irish help, check how many allied aircrew were interned for the duration and how many senior British politicians and military staff were flown from Foynes to the U.S. and back. I think there was a fair amount of help for a 'neutral' country. Also, if a U-boat crew was ashore they were not at sea sinking allied ships - just a thought.
