'abbottonatura'

in case you wondered that's buttons --- in italian!

so, why am i writing in italian, you ask?

well, i'll come to that, but, first, i have to say that i never thought i'd get to blog again! brian has been so busy (he says) that he's monopolised the computer and I've not been able to get even near the keyboard...

anyway, right now, he's in the kitchen making himself a lemsip - like all humans he gets those strange sneezy-coughy-runny-nose cold things - so i'm grabbing the chance to send a quick missive just to tell you that in three days we'll be in venice which will be fun because i get to be photographed in neat places like here...


and here...


as you can tell the photos were taken in the days before gill kindly knitted me my nice red scarf which i will obviously taking with me.

just wondering whether, this year, i'll need a bunny-sized pair of wellies, too...


you can see more of my venice-ventures here.

Have a wonderful trip Buttons, and try to shake off those two hangers-on at times so you can go out on your own and explore. Looking forward to your photos when you return. Have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. You can pass on my wishes to your roommates as well.

Have a great time, Buttons. I hope you've got the winter outfit Gill made you packed.
Just don't wander too far down dark alleys on your own and steer clear of anybody wearing orange oilskins!
