That my trip to Tuscany in September was the first time I would be in a country where a language other than English was spoken. This is not true. I actually spent two holidays in Mexico when I was younger.
What makes this trip different, however, is that I speak no Italian at all. I spoke, at that time, at least enough Spanish to say ‘please’ ‘thank you’ and ‘where’s the toilet’.
So I will be phrase book shopping next weekend.
Next weekend is a four day one for me. Monday, 25th, is a Bank Holiday and I took the Friday off as a holiday. Four.Days.Off!!!!
As for today, the good news is I actually slept until 6:38. The bad news is that that meant I didn’t have time to do my aerobics. So I’ll do them tonight when I get home.
