    Irish National gatecrashes Habsburger's place

    A brief trip to Vienna last week-end gave ne the opportunity to visit Schloss Schönbrunn - the former home of the Habsburger's.

    With more hunger than time and good taste, I settled for a MacDonald's lunch (!) Well, anyway, I was rewarded by the manager being Scottish: first time I have seen a kilt in here - the meal is on me!
