England takes Europe a la Carte’s advice

Welcome to my blog, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

This post is brought to you by Europe a la Carte, adviser to English tourism.

England have taken Europe a la Carte’s advice and jazzed up the border crossing into England on the A1. Entry to England was very low key with a tiny sign and no flags compared to the Scottish side which has an enormous sign and three flags. However now England have erected three St George Cross flags. I suppose it had to be three because it couldn’t be fewer than Scotland and more than three would have seemed like one-upmanship.

Before Europe a la Carte’s advice

Call me biased but I still that the Scottish entry is better. There is a large Welcome sign, also the blue flags with white crosses are more eye catching than white flags with a red cross and there’s no large Welcome to England sign. Now this is said as an objective observation as although I’m Scottish I currently live in England and drive up and down the A1 regularly.

So England you’ve gone part of the way, how about a nice big Welcome sign too?
