On the good news front

[inulro]

Since Poland joined the EU, I no longer need a visa to go there.

Sadly, the Czechs still hate us and I still need a visa.

I was thinking of going on a long weekend city break in the autumn to either Berlin or Copenhagen, the latest two cheap destinations with direct flights from Bristol. EasyJet have just added Budapest (with added bonus that Hungarians don't hate me) and Venice. Too much choice!

Budapest would probably be too much; Magyar is a bitch of a language and I was defeated by Portuguese.

Maybe I should concentrate on getting a job first.

It was the same in the UK for a time, due to a bit of a frenzied panic about hordes of ravening gypsies flooding the country. Etc etc. I think that got resolved, but I unsubbed from the Easter/Central European news service I used to read.
