The oddness of Russians

Shiny new passport (with traditional horrible mugshot) arrived this week! Yay! Since then I've been playing the apply-for-shiny-new-Russian-visa game. I've done it twice before now, so I throught I knew all the quirks, but it just gets odder and odder. And more stressful!!! *pulls hair out* So lets see - *deep breath*

( Due to high demand for visas at the moment, we have decided to close on Wednesdays )

See, Russians are insane. Yay for doseybat is visiting for dinner this evening, and is no exception to the insanity, but maybe she can tell us mere mortals why Russians do things this strange and baffling way.

And I'm visiting Cambridge this weekend! *littlehappydance*
