I did not recognize him, in spite of seeing him on TV. I only realized who he is from his voice. He looked quite old and frail. I don’t know how he is going to have the needed energy to work as a High Commissioner.

Its website is entirely in Maltese – not a glamorous, global association, then.

Perhaps he could have had a look at the biography of the British High Commissioner in Malta for some ideas of a diplomat’s CV.

First. How does one graduate from St Aloysius College? In 1960 not even sixth form existed. It started much later at this particular school. Bet the foreign office would not know this and would not bothered to check.

[Daphne – Something wrong with that date. He was born in 1941, so unless he was particularly dull and repeated year on year, he would have left that school at 16 in 1957. In 1960, he was 19.]

Secondly. He mentioned every band club and village pantomime he was involved in. He is best known as a radio DJ and TV presenter. He writes and boasts about this at length. And yet fails to mention the culmination of any DJ’s career especially in the 1960s. The fact that he was a DJ in Soho. Or was it something else?
