Golly gosh!

There's me, wishing our embassy a pleasant break, and ..... the torrent is unleashed!

And that being the case, perhaps I can add my tuppence-worth (any Brits know how to spell "two-penn'orth"?):

yah, the Brit. embassies around the world do generally have a very poor reputation in terms of being very aloof from their natives.

Shall we organise a silent protest outside the compound with banners, etc? Bombard them with ...... e-mails? Any other suggestions?

In fun.
