PRESS Andy-All: Please do NOT forget to include retreats in next season's (S1902) orders! Vie-Ven: Beware the ides of Marseilles. (I need to improve my literary prose) Vie-Par: Please be assured that we were most happy to accommodate the inaugural Paris-Vienna race which was so ably won by Marcel Renault in what many people consider to be Renault's greatest race victory of all time. It was noted that stage 2 from Belfort to Bregenz was a neutral non-racing section because the Swiss did not approve of motor racing. If you should need to detour the next race please mail for instructions though Munich. Ber-All: taken from "Berliner Nachrichten" ...The governmenr of Holland sent a note to the Kaiser protesting about the occupation of Denmark. The Kaisers reply was the one to be expected. We quote 'To the best of my knowledge there is no state named Denmark, thus currently we are certainly not occupying Denmark. The not from Holland is clearly insane and according to our insanity laws I had to declare war on Holland.' So the armies march again... Mos-Con: The tsar regrets the unprovoked aggression of the treacherous turkey. The tsar desires only to live in peace on good terms with his neighbours however if this is not to be, the tsar advises that he has ordered the mass production of cranberry sause as it is time to carve. Con-All: "Advisors to the Sultan were quite concerned about his recent voyage on the Black Sea. While not wanting to call his behavior eratic, some privately questioned why their leader would stand on the bow of a battleship yelling, 'I'm the king of the world!!!'" Andy-All: WOW!!! ANother great load of press :-) Thank you to those that contributed and a big come on the rest to those that didn't!
