I have a 2014 Fiat 500. I don’t think it needs updating yet. It already has windows.

I’d never heard of LegEnd and had to look it up. I assume you mean the Henry Cow album? I’ve never heard of Henry Cow. But some of the titles should be on the “memorable titles” thread. ‘Nirvana for Mice’, ‘The […]

The tourists in Puglia, since the boom started about 5 years ago, are mostly American, German and British. Enormous cruise ships dock in the ports and the beaches and the historic centres have become way too […]

You went to Puglia? My home for 40 years! I had to leave cos it just got so touristy. It’s bizarre how popular it’s become. Just ten years ago there were very few tourists. Now they’ve taken over. I find it funny […]

I hate to be pedantic*, but it’s “limoncello”. Even in English. *by “hate” I really mean “like”. You’re the 57th person I’ve pointed this out to.

Not exactly “lesser known” but my favourite place in Rome is Piazza Navona. The restaurants are a tad touristy and overpriced, but nonetheless for just sitting back and people-watching I think it’s one of the best […]

I just now did it myself on Google Maps. Not quite as thrilling perhaps, but less expense and less hassle involved. I only saw one car the whole time I was there. You can tell it’s not Italy, as there’s no litter […]

It’s true! Had they called it “(We Don’t Need This) Fascist Groove Thing” people would would have been asking “Which fascist groove thing are you referring to, exactly?”. They side-stepped that one with aplomb. […]

You’re lucky to miss out on his frequent pronouncements – while I firmly agree with many of his political views, I’m not so enamoured of his swivel-eyed loon presentation of them. Of course, you’re not so lucky […]

Talking of Heaven 17 titles, I always thought it was very smart of them to use “Thang” instead of “Thing” on their brilliant first single. Just made it that little bit more cool and noticeable.

I’ve heard him tell his “my mother’s advice was: read, read, read then do the right thing” anecdote a few times now. He wheels it out even more often than his dad dying in the war anecdote. I don’t think he […]

Peroni is primarily brewed in Italy (and a bit in the Netherlands). In Rome and Bari. I’ve been to the brewery in Bari a few times. I think the Nastro Azzurro spin-off is brewed in Britain as well as Italy. Why […]
