Don’t mind bout Logos, hes Belgian, they’re all tossers and reinforced basement builders anyway!
When World War I began, Germany invaded neutral Belgium and Luxembourg as part of the Schlieffen Plan, in an attempt to capture Paris quickly by catching the French off guard by invading through neutral countries.
It is widely claimed that the Belgian army's resistance during the early days of the war, with the army – around a tenth the size of the German army – holding up the German offensive for nearly a month, gave the French and British forces time to prepare for the Marne counteroffensive later in the year. Lang leve België
Edit: and ‘Schild en Vriend’ for that matter.
My grandfather fought at Passchendaele.

I have heard it also about 20 years ago. BUT recently I was in restaurant in another country. And I saw it posted on the wall. I remember the joke. And it was really funny. Thats why I posted I dont say I invented it.cptrelentless wrote: ↑Mon May 07, 2018 1:43 pm I'm pretty sure this joke is as old as the state of Malta.

Re: THE ITALIAN WHO WENT TO MALTA
Not mid-90s. In fact the youngest of we siblings is but 63, and I'm 70 in October.
Dad signed up as a teenager. A half-brother of ours died at 90 two years back, and a half-sister had her 90th two months ago, so you're partly right.
