Tuesday
 
Hello? Is that the Embassy of the Islamic Republic of Iran? The press office? At 16 Princes Gate, London? Splendid. We’d like to order a pizza please. Yes. A pizza.

What? You don’t . . . ? Really? Are you quite sure? Oh, wait. Oops. We’ve only gone and confused you with Bella Italia at 108 Queensway, haven’t we? Silly old us. Completely different place, obviously. Still, it’s only 1.7 nautical miles away, so an easy mistake to make. Sorry for any inconvenience.


Wednesday
 
Hello? Is that the Iranian Embassy at 16 Princes Gate? We spoke yesterday. Today, we’d like to order some flowers. Yes. From the florist’s stand at Paddington station. Tulips maybe.

Yes, that’s right. Paddington station. Hmm? Nothing to do with you? 1.7 nautical miles away? Oh. Well, what if we locked the flower seller in a room and spent a day persuading her to confess that, actually, your embassy is in Paddington station too? Wouldn’t that help? No? Not even if we filmed it?

Ah well. Suit yourself. Shame. Maybe we’ll talk tomorrow.


Thursday
 
Hello? Iranian Embassy? Yes, us again. We just wanted to congratulate you on securing the release of those 15 Brits. Oh. Wait. We’re confusing you with the Foreign and Commonwealth Office, aren’t we? It’s in Whitehall. About, ooh, 1.7 nautical miles away. Sorry. We didn’t mean to congratulate you at all. Bye.


:P
