I bet Putin is looking forward to this !

[Khandro]

Are you Putin the boot in already?

[mikey4444]

lol Khandro !

[ichkeria]

I suspect Putin isn't looking forward to it.
Either way I'd pay good money to be a fly on the wall

[Dinapal]

I believe that is what Her Majesty's Government appointed Foreign Secretary is expected to do as part of his role.

[mikey4444]

I wonder how much wah, wah, wah Putin will put up with !

[ichkeria]

Well, they invited him...

[Jackdaw33]

Foreign Secretary to visit foreign country. Shock, horror, quelle surprise!

[ichkeria]

Except that it is the first visit for a while ...

Boris speaks fluent Russian .He also has Russian ancestry .I think he will be alright with this assignment.

[Dinapal]

Probably better qualified than what the other lot could put in to bat.

"Boris speaks fluent Russian .He also has Russian ancestry .I think he will be alright with this assignment. "

lol, no he doesn't (!)
Maybe you are thinking of this?


I daresay he'll have some more phrases lined tho:
"Chai ne budu, spasibo" perhaps :-)
That would go down well ...

[Jackdaw33]

Can you translate that, as it it nothing like the Russian I know.

[Khandro]

Or, Кто-нибудь фантазии пинта? (anyone fancy a pint?)

[Jackdaw33]

That's even worse! Stay away from Google Translate.

[ichkeria]

Roughly translated: "I'll pass on the tea, thanks" :-)

[Jackdaw33]

Literally translated it means:

I won't be a tea thank you.

[emmie]

Boris may well do a good job, who knows, he also has
Turkish ancestry perhaps he should be off to Turkey to stop them falling into the hands of daish or theirsupporters.

Google Translate is a good source of jokes!

[emmie]
