You can tell I haven't got much to do - three posts in as many days - but I've finally managed to acquire a PO box in the main Post Office here in Tripoli, so I thought I'd share these pictures with you. It's in a wonderful decaying monolithic fin de sièclesque building in an Italianate square just outside the centre of town, across the road from the converted cathedral. I had to sign my life away in blood in triplicate, but I do now feel like a genuine resident.


This was the busiest I've seen it - one chap reading a newspaper, and more staff than customers. A lovely atmosphere.
