DD's boyfriend is Italian. They were on holiday in Italy last week and his dad and brother came down to see them (and check DD out!). 6 hours on one motorbike for dad and brother, but they brought a cool bag full of cheese for DD. It seems to have survived its journeys and she now has 8 different varieties of Italian cheese in her N London fridge. Mind you, that was Tuesday so no doubt some will have been consumed by now.lostinrates wrote: »http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2760492/Is-Kim-Jong-ill-North-Korean-dictator-poor-health-weight-ballooned-thanks-obsession-cheese.html
Fir asks me to tell you this is not his work. Last night he met more Italians wanting bagels and he did not push cheese on them either.
She does like cheese!0 -

Well, if so, it seems to like it just up from you.
. It really likes our covered yard, and our neighbour's. . Central locations in the yards though not the tallest or warmest buildings. Very close to my hay and their straw and their confined livestock. Still, I don't worry about it too much, I do think I'd get to the livestock before them and that concerns me a bit. 0 -

That is the plan but you're the second people I've told after my client. She wants an award made to attach to the bathroom door!Everything that is supposed to be in heaven is already here on earth.

although his dad is threatening to take English lessons so he can understand her directly rather than rely on his son's translation!
She is doing some more Italian classes starting next month, not just conversational, proper grammar etc. - just another language to add to her collection.0 -

I'm waiting for Clive to deliver DS's birthday present. He's been very local all day but I am delivery 129. Another 30 mins or so to wait.
DPD delivery service is the best by such a long way.Everything that is supposed to be in heaven is already here on earth.
