Failte and miredita,
It is with great displeasure that the embassy has fallen out with our neighbours from the US. We may have thrown a party that was so loud they thought a disco had moved in next door, but they’ve repeatedly parked their jeeps in front of our door. Things came to a nasty head yesterday evening when we were forced to make a written complaint. Said written complaint was found this morning in a bundle on the road. Our only hope is that the situation will resolve itself naturally and swiftly before we’re forced to advise economic sanctions and a general boycott of US products by embassy staff.
In other news, the embassy would like to bid a fond farewell to Sarah Davern, our lovely Irish teacher. Sarah is off to Haiti to work, and while we know there will always be a sad pocket of Kosovars who’ll never quite capture the aimsir fháistineach, we know that the Haitians need her more. Good luck Sarah!
Good work lads but if you have any trouble with the yanks go ask for Joe the gardai from Kilkenny at the police station in Prishtina, he’s helping the Kosovan police with their policing. I met him in the summer and he’d be a good man for helping you lads out…or just for going for a pint with.
Good luck.
