to Italy for a week now (thanks for all the food tips). Know bog-all Italian; it's going to be weird to be somewhere where we don't even know the basics. Presumably it's a bit like Spanish? Middle class guilt will inevitably lead us to spend eight quid on an Italian for Dummies at Gatwick, which we will promptly lose on our return.
Someone has volunteered to post while I'm away, so do pop in now and again to see what they come up with.
Good grief, just discovered you can't have an exclamation mark in a post label - freaks it out completely - how crap is that? Anyway, ciao, bellas (see? fluent already...)
