I feel certain that the President will be shocked when she realizes that the invitations arrived so long after the reception.

Having said this I can assure her Excellency that I was much more shocked and shaken when in her time as an MLP high official, I was attacked by a bunch of thugs/criminals at the GWU, and had it not been for the prompt action taken by the security officer, I would not be here today to write this comment.

The caterer must have done pretty well. So many invitations, and so many no shows. I wonder if he had inside information?

The staff responsible for sending the invitation were probably demonstrating their British work ethic if Joseph Muscat is to be believed. Welcome back.

In reply to verita. How many of them know how to use a fork and knife properly?

Aren’t such invitations issued first via diplomatic pouch and then on location?

Is anyone surprised that RCC had to issue instructions for EVERYTHING?

Rather disciplined and correct than everything in free-fall.

In reply to Cikku.

X’jigifieri inbaxxi rasi ghaliex “il-president (skond huma) hekk trid”?

Baqax, ukoll! Mela l-president ghandha xi dritt “hekk trid”?

It-tfal bla kontroll jghidu “hekk irrid”!

Hekk hu kif qed tgħid int verita. Il-ħażin hu li lanqas jippruvaw jitgħallmu anzi jikkonvinċu lilna nagħmlu dak li jridu huma u kif jaqbel lilhom anke jekk ngħidulhom li l-affarijiet ma jmorrux hekk… jagħmlu ta’ rashom u minħabba li hemm il-president fin-nofs, u l-president skont huma hekk trid, ikollna nbaxxu rasna u addio l-protokol. Bilkemm ma jgħidulnix li qed niffissaw.

Professionalism, or at least, a disposition to be ready to admit that one needs to learn about a job before embarking on it, is unknown among upstarts.

the great majority of the president’s staff are new to all protocol and have no idea how to go about etiquette, and normal procedures
