Trouble in the Middle East ... Anglia?

Headline in Turkish newspaper Zaman:

"Denmark and Norwich Urge Citizens to Leave Syria"

The story starts ...

Denmark and Norwich have begun to urge their citizens to leave Syria after their embassies were set on fire in the country.

Denmark Foreign Minister Spokesman said “70 Danes left Syria. Some left last night, the others left this morning.” The spokesman advised their citizens to stay indoors until a way to get them out of there was found.

The Norwich Foreign Minister said, "It do be a bit of a rum'un, Oi reckon it moight be the waaarst news round these paaarts since that thar Great Turnip Bloight of 1895. Oi'm orf down the pub 'n' Oi reckon youse all orter do the soim fer safety's sake."

No news of any warnings for Ipswich or Great Yarmouth residents.
