4 Answers
Some years ago a small rural town in Italy twinned with
a similar town in Greece.
The Mayor of the Greek town visited the Italian town.
When he saw the palatial mansion belonging to the
Italian mayor he wondered how he could afford such a
house.
The Italian said; "You see that bridge over there? The
EU gave us a grant to build a two-lane bridge, but by
building a single lane bridge with traffic lights at either
end this house could be built".
The following year the Italian visited the Greek town. He
was simply amazed at the Greek Mayor's house, gold
taps, marble floors, it was marvellous.
When he asked how this could be afforded the Greek
said; "You see that bridge over there?"
The Italian replied; "No."
