After my first day (during which I got to email the Zimbabwean ambassador). Anyway, the eternal question is, do I take the bull by the horns and join the wrecking crew, and eternally soil my reputation here, or do I meekly stick to one glass of champagne and excuse myself early, as I have to get up at 6am again tomorrow?

I can't help but get the feeling that free booze and fine food and wine in a private room at a restaurant isn't something which comes round all too often....
