Officially an "irish abroad"

Well, the other day I was told that I should really register with the Irish Embassy here in Beijing, so they could keep track of me just in case anything should happen (plus you get invited to the official Paddy's day bash). I sent off the registration form the other day, and got confirmation this morning. So, now I'm officially an "Irish abroad".

Oh, something else struck me as well. the email had the usual boiler-plate "this email is confidential blah blah blah", but it had it in irish as well as english. I never knew the irish word for email before - r-phost"!
