President Lech Kaczynski tries his best to look enthusiastic about the start of the World Cup in Germany. Poland play Ecuador tonight.
Or maybe he is looking glum because he has heard the rumours that finance minister, Zyta Gilowska, has handed in her resignation.
That's the second finance minister the government has lost in seven months.
More soon...
Update: Well, she didn't resign. The spat was about balancing the government's books and some weird row about artist's paint brushes being tax deductable.
She has threatened to resign several times...this was yet another. All will be revealed Monday.

He is unhappy because his march was cancelled.
And Poland lost...
Yeah, I love this filli g up the tax loophole for artist's brushes and the like. Artists are a soft target...can't see them marching down Maszalkowska brandishing their canvases in a viollent manner in protest.
But filling a loophole won't fill the hole in the budget.
Good points. I love the fact that lecturers can copyright their lectures! maybe they could release an album of their greatest hits!
