La Diplomatie

In response to cabinet requests for chocolates and wine (BTW, thanks for the hazelnuts Sq!), I have despatched instructions to our ambassador, Little Bob, to enter into negotiations with the French government. I have great hope of success as LB is most energetic. Here are pics of him with President Chirac at the annual Conférence des Ambassadeurs at the Elysée Palace on 28 August.

  2. Those were taken before you were introduced and then after you left. They'd just made some fresh French Roast in the canteen down the hall.

  3. 75% coco with hazelnuts.....

    I feel the need to provide LB with something very nice to drive to and from the negotiations...

    Maybe a nice red little '53 MG TD?

  5. WC: LB is quite interested. But he says he wants a test-drive first. Please see what you can arrange. - Hamster
