[Albion] “I think he's an Albion fan", Athens/AEK edition

[wellquickwoody]

Can someone please knock up some tin foil coated Elgin Marbles?

 

[Sid and the Sharknados]

no..... absolutely not!

Nowadays if you try and steal the Elgin Marbles they throw you in jail.

I don't believe we should be mentioning the Elgin Marbles, unless we are telling Sunak to give them back. Just been to the Acropolis museum where in a short film Elgin is stated as being a major villain in the decay of the building due to his vandalism and theft of valuable artifacts

Mention the marbles and we will have a nation against us.

They must be expecting VERY bad traffic if they've set off already...

Alternate number plates every day. Odds and evens, to try to dilute pollution, so the Athenians got around that by buying two cars.

It is a very sore point with them and could cause trouble.

In reality, I wholeheartedly agree, but football banter and reality are not comfortable bedfellows.

It's parody a "mock the week" play on reality.

Give them back yes.

"You can stick your Elgin marbles up your arse" yes too!

Just arrived at my ‘boutique’ hotel (or ‘hotel’ as it could be described)……metro is an absolute doddle to the city centre (then one change to the hotel) and got the €20 3 day ticket that includes the airport round trip. Might go on a ticket pickup expedition shortly

 

[Beach Hut]

Port area very chic and rustic, loads on 08:00 flight from Gatwick

Greeks think it's big coat weather but it's a balmy summers day

Are the 20 euro tickets available in the machines or do you have to queue for them?

Machines, easy to navigate as in English once selected

No wonder they're potless. I'd have bought two number plates.
