Listen up, bro! I just found out from a buddy of mine who lives in Paris that the Frenchies have screwed up the railways! The unions at SNCF, those guys who never agree to anything, have called a strike.
And what comes out of it? Total chaos on TGV, TER, Intercity, and RER - that is, all trains in France, from one end to the other. Right now, when Romanians are making vacation or work plans, you should see the faces they make at the ticket counters, man!
Me, my wife Mioara was telling me to go to Paris for Easter, but now I'm thinking: better I stay in Berceni, at Fane's terrace, than wait for canceled trains for hours. And what do you do if you're stuck there? The Foreign Ministry gave us phone numbers: the Consulate General in Paris at +33 147052966 and +33 147052755.
And don't forget the app 'Travel Informed', because you don't want to be stuck like a cat in a calendar. Check if anything is still running, otherwise you'll be at the station watching the clock tick by.
Man, but maybe it's better to take your car, like me with my BMW, and drive to hell in France, than wait for those unionists who think they own the railways. And you know, in Râmnicu Vâlcea, where I have a relative, it's the same: when the city hall argues with the unions, you're left without a bus. So, pay attention, don't leave your vacation in their hands!
