That reminds me...

When I was working at the Brazilian Naval Commission in Europe in the 80s, a 
newly-appointed Brazilian officer arrived and, as I was told some time later, 
carried a gun on his person (as he used to in Brazil) for a few days until he 
was desisted from doing so by his superior, even though he had diplomatic 
privilege, because it was officially against the law to carry a gun unless 
authorised by the British government. Anyhow, at the end of his commission, he 
went back to Brazil via Miami, Florida, and it was there that he was quietly 
relieved of his belongings - in the two years he was in the UK, he had lost his 
habit of carrying a gun!

My best wishes to the brave souls for a speedy recovery, which should have gone 
in the first posting ...

Gabriel.
