    Also, she's obviously under considerable stress due to her finances imploding, and she's cogging on quite a bit.

        indeed, sad really I'm not sure how I would cope in her position.

              My great grandfather voz called Wolfgang, until he moved to Britain, called himself William (Boleslaw in Polish) and told everyone he was Polish instead of German, which was probably sensible shortly after the first world war.

                It's a shame he wasn't a purveyor of fine delicatessen - "Boleslaw's Coleslaw"! Would have been a brand blinder!
                If you think my attitude stinks, you should smell my fingers.

                  Nothing wrong with a German accent. People might assume you are part of the Royal Family.

                    I remember Roy Hatterley being asked "is it right to openly refer to race and racism?"

                      I knew it! Many poles in the UK are not Poles at all! 70 years later and her we are ... quite a few of my English 'friends' give me friendly advise to fake my identity and pretend that I am Russian or German. They see it as the only way in which to avert pummelling by vicious mobs.
                      If UKIP are the answer, then it must have been a very stupid question.
