You know, the Irish Consulate people are not the most forthcoming in the world. Upon being asked if it’s possible to have passport applications sent via email, they said ‘no’. No suggestion as to how to request them, then, nor, in fact, any punctuation. Just ‘no’. No caps, no period, no nothing.
Perhaps the Irish have made certain the few unfriendly Irish are the ones in the consulates, so that they don’t have to deal with them themselves?
Maybe they’re trying to get over bureaucratic language. :) You know how terse the Irish are. :)
*laugh* Yep, terse. That’s the Irish. Them terse bastards. *laugh*
