"The Italian family we met on a farm near one of our camping sites
who invited us in for wine - the old guy near Jenny was so cute.
Italy, May 73" |
I recall that we had a lunch around here somewhere, and Oz had ordered "pollo", which came as just a piece of chicken. He wasn't used to the Italian way of ordering all the sides, veges, etc, as separate item. I remember he was really upset at being "ripped off" by just a simple bit of grilled chicken on the plate.... I recall these guys above as well. I chatted to them in Italian, but they had a pretty local dialect....

"Unfortunately the only colour photo of our tent - taken at the camping
area with the rats on the River Po. Italy, May 3" |
Talking of rats -- remember a time camping with this tent in a forest -- not a camping site -- somewhere in Switzerland, I think it might have been Berne, maybe not.... Anyway, we went out, came back, lit the camping Gaz for a cuppa tea, and when I went to pour the milk from the carton, it wouldn't come out. I looked at the spout... it was blocked with the head of a rat that had climbed in somehow and drowned in the milk. Aaargh, I tossed it away in horror! Remember that?
