Earlier this week Angela Merkel arrives in Greece on a regular plane at Athens main airport.
At passport control she is asked her nationality. She replies, German.
The official then asks, 'occupation', to which Frau Merkel quickly replies, "no, not at all. coming on a holiday".
First joke to appear on this blog.
A joke about the German leader 70 years ago could have resulted in execution.
We have come a long way.
