Ambassador, you are really spoiling us

Ferrero RocherThe rest of this Sunday Times article was a bit dull, but this paragraph about a journalist’s visit to the Russian Ambassador in London made me chuckle:

Inside the building the reception rooms are magnificently grand with high ceilings, mahogany doors and antique furniture. On a coffee table stood a plate of Jammie Dodger biscuits, meticulously arranged in the shape of a rose. Next to them was a bowl of Ferrero Rocher chocolates.

Old school ambassador-ing, at its very best.

(By the way - do they have the ‘Ambassador, you are really spoiling us’ Ferrero Rocher advert outside of the UK? Or Jammy Dodgers?)
