Dear me wot a palaver eh! Trying to get Gnomeland Security to accept:
- My former employer's former phone number1, and
- My grate frend Al's phone number
was an exercise in novel Bad Swears. However, I triumphed and thus it can be deduced that I have at least applied for an ESTA that I might once more visit Naughty Nevada for high-speed lying-down fun and frolics. They'd better give me one coz I've already ponied up for the flight and car.
1 - although I think the company has ceased to exist following the Penguin/Random Shack merger, the building in which they resided turned back into a pumpkin and the phone disconnected. Next time I'll just answer "No".
