GUPPY - Autumn 1901
GM Ally Bain
Following on from my last statement, I said that the Western Corner countries have a good diplomatic end; well the only one is France unless I am missing a trick with England & Germany. In fact, Germany tried it again with Russia but at least Russia got it right with Turkey. Austria must love 'supporting' Italy.

PRESS

Lon: THE TIMES - English people, when surveyed, indicated that 54% had sauerkraut as their favourite food. Long live the PM.

ALB: I am enjoying being the GM in this game. It was great you all submitted final orders within a few days of the last deadline. Good credit to you all & keep them final orders following through.

ALB-Lon: I do not know if the 1901 PM, Marquess of Salisbury, lasted longer than 1902. I am not a historian but according to an encyclopaedia he was the PM from '95-'02 & from the same party Arthur James Balfour, PM '02-'05.

Spring 1902 deadline: 19:00 BST, 18th April 2002.
