Milan
Milan has been deliciously quiet for the last three days. All on account of the odd Italian ‘ponte’ or bridge, which occurs as a result of having a public holiday in the middle of the week.
Indeed, it has been ‘Sunday’ since Wednesday here. Everyone, just about, has headed off for the sea or the mountains. My other half has left me here with the destructive pooing puppy, while she has gone down to Genova with our wee one to see her parents.
I’ve been making the most of these few tranquil days to catch up on some work and to just unwind a little - lots of films from Blockbuster.
Sunday evening will be hell on Italian roads as everyone heads back to Milan, Rome, Turin, Florence, etc.
Nice to know! Many thanks.
Since I moved Blog from Italy to its new home, I’ve been following things via my site statistics - I like these things. From the beginning of October to now my kind readers have been hanging around for an average of over 4 minutes. And I got over 2,800 page views in the same period.
I just wanted to say thanks for devoting some of your time to reading my ravings! I appreciate it, I really do.
There is nothing, I think, that can give an aspiring writer, such as myself, such pleasure as simply being read. I think writers are a type of performer, but possibly without the guts or opportunity to stand up in front of an audience. I’m no exception to this.
Cheers!
Alex - the aspiring writer.
