Ha, I worked in Amman many moons ago and the best dos I got invited to were the Australian Embassy’s Australia Day bashes. Legendary. One time we were visiting the excavations at Pella on AD and the Aussie diplomats were there (it was an Aussie-run dig), and the ambassador got absolutely caned and was a riot. Happy…

And that cut away from a dance section of the opening ceremony that was a memorial to the dead of the 7/7 London bombings, to interview Michael Phelps. Like that couldn’t have waited. So disrespectful.
