    Exception to the rule

    I worked with a Bulgarian woman in London once (actually I've worked with a few). God, she was a freaky woman. She wore tight jeans and enough make-up to keep Avon in business for a decade. As for her personality...she made Michael Jackson appear normal.

    ...

    Worked with a lady from Serbia once. Gorgeous, and had a devastating effect on the virtually all male team... I actually had to email my team leader that she had a boyfriend (big Serbian chap who worked in next office) as I could see he was about to make a pass at her - close call indeed...

    She was smart, hardworking, but really played the 'im a female - do you like my tight top?' angle...

    And she got paid more than me.... cant think why

    That's pretty cool, Franco. But Lenin couldn't speak Russian properly. He was the Jonathan Ross of Russian revolutionaries

    Niet. I look more like this.

    Franco, of course you sound more Russian than your gf! She's Lithuanian! I haven't been in there for a couple of years, but there is a Benji in Victoria that used to be staffed almost entirely by Lithuanians. One of them was fairly cute

    Strangely, AtW is always silent whenever there's a spot of Eastern Europe bashing.

    Milan.
    Not me mate. Just been away for a week (oddly enough to that jolly old London village). President Putin waved at me on his way home from tea with Prince Charles. Perhaps he mistook me for a Ruski. There’s certainly lots of them about.

    What down turn? Got home to find yet another 3 month renewal. Had 4 years of the damn things so far!

    Anyway, who you calling old?

    Indeed, is the panel aware of any official statistics on the prevalence of eastern European wives amongst geeky socially inept IT types who can’t get a proper girlfriend?

    I’ll get my coat.
    Where have you been?

    No leave that for the second date, where you can also discuss humourous select statements you once saw.
