Why do I feel like dancing around in a circle singing "I don't get my oil from there" ?

And no, its not a mental condition after seeing Ireland claw back from 43-3 to 43-31 in 20mins.

Because you get your oil from Libya? Not sure how the Irish sporting figures into it, though, but "anything can happen in Wesworld".

9 January 1930

To: Mozaffer Tabatabaee, Foreign Minister, on behalf of His Imperial Majesty, Shahanshah, Aryamehr, Reza Shah the Great

From: Jal Kadharni, Foreign Minister, on behalf of the Raj

Dear Sir,

My government and that of the other SATSUMA contracting powers have received your message of two days ago. I am pleased to tell you that we will be convening a meeting on the eleventh of this month to vote on the matter of Persia's admission, as required under Article 2 of the Accord.

I will endeavour to advise you of the outcome of this vote at the earliest opportunity.

Sincerely,

Jal Kadharni

Today former Captain Shapour Zahedi was named as the new Navy Minister by Prime Minister Mostowfi ol-Mamalek. Zahedi was appointed in response to the discovery last month that the previous Navy Minister had embezzled almost all of the funds designated for ship and infrastructure construction.

The Deputy Foreign Minister was seen hurrying in his limousine to the airport so quickly today that it seemed he was being chased by the hounds of hell itself! He boarded His Majesty's private plane as quickly as possible, and soon the twin-engine craft was zooming into the sky. One can only wonder what is so important that the Deputy Foreign Minister is being granted the use of His Majesty's air transport!

Rumors have it that the plane is headed towards Europe to make an important industrial deal with an unknown nation. The most likely candidates appear to be Italy and France, since Foreign Minister Tabatabaee was engaging in discussions with both of the ambassadors of these nations earlier this week.

Well if you danced around singing "I don't get my oil from there" durring the game, it would be percieved as a mental illness!

Especially if there were others in the room who had no idea what the hell you were talking about!

Didn't Churchill have the UK buy up much of the Persian oil fields or something like that before the QE's were built? I might just have to drill more wells in Texas and Oklahoma...*smiles greedily*

Ponder as much as you like, but bring cash. The oil's certainly for sale.

Unless you have something that can handle 900kg and 750kg shells....

January 10

It is certainly a busy month diplomatically for the Empire. Today it was announced that the Deputy Foreign Minister had indeed flown to a European country, and signed a non-aggression and trade pact with France. Tomorrow the SATSUMA members vote to see if Persia is to be admitted to the alliance, and one can only wonder whether the two events are related in any way.

Japan is well aware of the Russian Oil Project on Sakhalin.

I have when the time comes...

Greece drilled a giant slant well under Asia Minor and has sucked most of the oil out from under the Middle East. It has been so successful that we have shelved our efforts to extract oil from our greasy ethnic minorities. ; )

Nice to see that England can loose more than just Cricket.

Six vs. France - does Admiral K. know about this?

Rugby - gotta love a sport where they tape their ears to their heads so that don't lose them. ; )

Actually we're on our way to the grand slam. A convincing victory over the welsh last week and a hard-fought win against Italy yesterday. Not much better than sitting in a bar with a pint watching a rugby match.
