Xe bela'? I love Tim Parks's books...I've recently bought...it's in my hand now!..."Italian Ways: On & Off the Rails from Milan to Palermo" publ. by Harvill Secker@£16.99..& imagine he has a lot of pertinent things to say about Italian railway habits!

And hope the cats don't go wandering. Tim Parks wrote a very sensible article in The New York Times (www.nybooks.com/blogs/nyrblog/2013/aug/holding-italy-hostage/) the other week about Italian acceptance of corruption at a very basic level, enabling someone like Berlusconi to harness the country to his needs.. good reading.

It's also about the awful grey souls of these mis-educated people who seem to rise like scum to the top of western societies.I think Italy is singularly,emotionally, badly-placed for enlightened thinking...historically,religiously,politically etc....but I'm sure there are a few Italians who can lead the way.And the world knows how Italians like to follow a leader! Let's hope it's someone as 'civilised'-- what does that really mean?-- as Cecile, who has shown remarkable tolerance & amazing grace!
