They won the UISP Championship then came third in the Billy Cup. What more could we ask for? A meal with the whole team? Including wives and kids?

DOLCE VITA
Armanis travel. Between Paris and London, they stopped in Cortona. Cappuccinoed in the piazza, bought up the salame al tartufo in the shops, drank all the chianti then had a horrific journey back to Geneva.
There was no void, no time to post, only time to enjoy and have fun! From Pienza we gazed into the Val d’Orcia before heading for the Val di Chiana outlet. Perugia we did not quite manage but jeans were purchased anyway.
Che vuoi?
La Val d'Orcia from behind cool shades.
Peace my friend, this is Camucia on ONLUS (ie NGO) day. (Culture shock step 1)
Apero at Bar 500 before culture shock step 2 at La Gabola.
Waitress, coffee and biscuits please!

ONE OF THOSE DAYS…
Today has just been one of those days, I have been stuck like the light between the two buildings, in some kind of void microspace. Work went well until I got over excited about sending in a report. From then on it was cappuccino and avoidance. Anything as long as it was not constructive. The olive trees are fine, the weather has been changing, the washing is done, as is some of the filing. How to rate satisfaction?!
No pigeons in sight.

BORING BY COMPARISON
When Brigitte gets a break from work, she ploughs through millions of guide books and figures out where she is going to take her next vacation, with and without Marco. This year, she decided it was a sound idea to catch the Trans-Siberian from Moscow to Ulan Bataar, not in the tourist cabins but with the locals. Seven days later, she had befriended her three Russian militry mates and used up their tea bags whilst they finished off the vodka. Un-raped and quite happy, she made her way through Mongolia with an only-native-speaking guide, sleeping inside yurts and eating lots of the cheese she hates… For their next trip together, they are returning to China, the place Marco has disliked the most on their many many many trips!
Errr, and we took them to La Grotta in Cortona!

IN YOUR FACE STYLE
In a hurry to get ready, Cristian delved into the bathroom cabinet and extracted an orange tube of hair gel. He squirted some on his wet hands and rubbed it all over his head. Moose. Strange. But he pressed on with his styling. By evening, his Beckham look was still unruffled. Before going to bed, he enquired what brand this new orange gel was. Face wash was the answer…
