Apology

We would like to take a moment to sincerely apologise to the people of Thailand. Johnny the Red believed, and still does believe that a trip abroad would help his credentials in the realm of foreign affairs (of which he has had many – often in Thailand - but that’s a whole other indictment). However, Johnny would like to apologise for his unnecessarily phonetic pronunciation of Phuket.

Although pronouncing the “H” is, arguably, a forgivable mistake, Johnny now realises that continually saying it that way, even after being repeatedly corrected, and giggling uncontrollably, was a faux pa.

We here at campaign headquarters are optimistic of more success during next week’s hopefully uneventful trip to Niger...
