The giant awakes

August 28, 2006 Italy, Milan No Comments

Milan, according to the telly news, has filled up with inhabitants all back from their summer hols, only there is not much traffic around and there are still plenty of vacant parking spaces and many shops are still shut up tight.  So the news is wrong.

My guess is that people will drift back this week and everything will be good and busy from the beginning of next week.

The horses mouth has spoken.

Francesco Cossiga Understood Italy

18 Aug 2010

For those who did not know, Francesco Cossiga, who died the other day, was an Italian politician and one time President of Italy.

Berlusconi Divorces Fini

Kotipizza Berlusconi

From spat to full-blown split. Silvio Berlusconi’s marriage of political convenience to Gianfranco Fini has ended in tears. Scorned lover Berlusconi even rejected Fini’s last minute attempts to kiss and make up and remain part of Berlusconi’s party of love. End of love in. Period.
