“The countries having national theatres include: Senegal, (Dakar);Haiti;Papua New Guinea;Adis Abbaba,Ethopia;Lagos, Niger;Accra, Ghana.”

Who else but the lady with the same initials as me? She should take heed of Kenneth’s mother.

[Daphne – Yes, Astrid Vella, of course. I read that, but decided against passing any remarks lest they be considered too cutting. You know how it is, ‘girls’ are allowed to be as stupid as they please (because for ‘girls’ to be stupid and silly is natural), but God help anyone who laughs at their stupidity because they are ‘ungentlemanly’ or ‘nasty bitches’. I imagine Mrs Vella knows nothing about geography and even less about politics, democracy, GDP and human rights, or she would have noticed the common link among those names she mentions – and it’s not a national theatre.]

[Daphne – Yes, that’s the problem. And that’s why I wrote earlier that Muscat is a good judge of character, who pinpoints people’s Achilles’ heel and goes for it.]
