Reinhold, my DAWN colleague from Switzerland, mailed me this picture and wrote: "Do you understand now why I'm afraid for Euro 08? There will be especially fans from a small European nation flooding our area here." I mailed him back: "They can be a bit noisy, Reinhold, but at least they water in the urinoirs, and not in your beautiful alp meadows. Just to comfort you: they will be gone after the first round. Enjoy them and spoil them the short while they are around. If the Swiss have done their homework well, you can sell a lot of fondues and raclettes (make sure to put in some oranges though, otherwise they won't eat it). When they're gone again, you will surely miss them." Btw, if you like orange, make sure to come to Holland this week for Queen's Day (30 April), when the national craziness is peaking again.
