Sky is coming

Yep, the other half has finally come to terms with reality and accepted that the only way to get decent TV is to pay for it.

Stop reading, start speaking

Stop translating in your head and start speaking Italian for real with the only audio course that prompt you to speak.

Today is Saturday, nearly a week after the hi-tech order was made. Do we have Sky? Well, sort of. We can see CNN and Cartoon Network, and that is it.

I suppose one could say that the delivery of the service is not quite up to the speed with which it can be ordered.

Oh well, it will be good when it gets here. Between you and me though, I much prefer Internet to TV. Sky or no Sky.

The Italian Bar

Italian bars come in many shapes and sizes, but they can be divided into two quite distinct categories – those that open in the morning and close at about the same time as the shops do – that is around 7.30 and the bars which are more akin to the English pub – except that they open in the early evening and finally close at around 2 in the morning.
