Thanks Butterfly, I can just imagine the conversation. The GT is not worth the air-fare so I will have to rely on the Peninsular.
Thanks also tg1234. At least we now know that they have not all been assassinated in the office.
Q-tel will have to get their act together by december with thousands of journalists wanting instant high speed access in December.
You may know that the Youth and Sports Administration (YASA) was originally known as the General Authority for Youth and Sports (GAYS).
They held a table tennis tournament in the 1991 and despite phone calls from the then Sports Editor of the GT, to the Ministry advising that the advert could cause some embarrassment, they insisted it be printed. They apparently tried to fire the sports editor immediately after it was printed but fortunately it was an advertisement and not editorial content
They changed the name the day after.
I am posting a copy of the advert under DOHA....enjoy!
