TT? yuk, yuk. I am into older type of guys, sigh!
Things are better with dh/dp, we are not married by the way, because he is often away. No, seriously, we argue a lot and haven't had time to think of any babies. Oh, well. Off to bed with my novel. ciao.

There was a great duet between Giorgia and Elio e le storie tese 10 yrs ago, possibly more:
Giorgia: No! Continuo a sognare il bomba dei take that
Elio: che gli mancano tre buchi nel sedere per essere cicciobombo cannoniere.
Ah bei tempi

Give me Tony Soprano any night, tt are just too scemi. I wonder what your dream. We can discuss it over lunch. Maybe part of your is hankering for your youth? And of course my obsession iwth older guys is about a father fixation.

PippiCalzelunghe · 28/10/2007 22:26

i did say dp didn;t I? what novel. l'm off too otherwise I'll have to start looking for a dp myself as dh will divorce me.

night night

hotHELL · 28/10/2007 22:26

sorry about typos! and sp! and grammar, etc. night, night.

hotHELL · 28/10/2007 22:28

sometimes i refer to my dp as my dh, as don't see the difference anyway. but like to say that I am not married as i want ot give the impression of being still young and adventurous. Reading a Jane Austen!

francagoestohollywood · 28/10/2007 22:28

Lol. I like really young ones. tt are just too old for me. night!!

PippiCalzelunghe · 28/10/2007 22:33

promise me you'll sing iot to me over lunch. not when I am eating though as I am sure I'll spit all on the table, like I spat the wine when read it!!

francagoestohollywood · 28/10/2007 22:38

of course I will, I know it by heart. I know all Elio e le storie tese songs (until 2001) by heart. the whole repertorio from 1985 to 2001.

francagoestohollywood · 28/10/2007 22:51

the song's title is TVUMDB, here are the lyrics:

Salve,
ragazza che imbratti i muri del metro'. Pensavo di offrirti un sorso di
Zabov, ma... cosa leggo? Preferisci del Vov?
Sai la scritta che hai scritto, sai, mi piace assai. Sai, quel tuo
corpicino che guardava me ha spinto il mio corpicione verso te che scrivi
sui muri milioni di sigle tipo A. T.A. T.V.U.M.D.B. Come sei attraente tu
che sogni quel cicciobombo dei Take That, fai le prime esperienze con il
tuo gillette, quell'autoerotismo a base di doccino.
E t'tt'd'n tratt' il coro:
A. T.A., T.V.U.M.D.B. by Elio e le Storie Tese. Oh A., T.A. T.V.U.M.D.B.
noi, figli dell'assoluto.
Ehi, lo sai, mi prendi piu' che mai e per questo ti voglio bene. Ma non so
se poi resistero' quando amarsi sara' routine, e poi ci sara' il divorzio e
i figli sono infelici.
No. Continuo a sognare il bomba dei Take That, che - non dirlo - gli
mancano - tu non puoi - due buchi nel sedere - non e vero e lo sai - per essere Cicciobombo Cannoniere e andare ad abitare i Francia. A. , T.A., T.V.U.M.D.B by Elio e le Storie Tese. Oh, A., T.A., T.V.U.M.D.B.; noi, due cuori ed un pennarello ( soldande che shcrive bbiango). Come gli Earth, Wind and Fire. Guarda come scrive il pennarone - il pennarone -. Senti come grida il peperone: pam. Gusta come e al dente il
maccherone - i il maccherone al dente -. Olfa il gas nervino del santone.
T.v.u.m.d.b

I looked if I could find it on youtube, but there are many others, not this one.

Ho mandato una email alla famosa francagoestohollywood. Will you wear your brogues at our meet up? Haven't found any here in London, the topshop ones are the slimline ones which I don't like. I have seen nice brogues for men but not in my size. Problema, problema!

francagoestohollywood · 29/10/2007 20:53

ti ho risposto! . I will certainly wear my brogues if that's what you wish. Shame the topshop ones are a delusione. If you like mine I can buy them in Milan for you and post them.

OP posts:
hotHELL · 29/10/2007 22:16

Wear them please! Will see if I can get them on line. My problem is that i have a huge foot. Very unflattering.
Wonder where pippi is...maybe dealing with the bubonic plague?

hotHELL · 29/10/2007 22:24

I tried to send you an email, my account keeps freezing. but i have read your email, i feel a bit worried about this meetup. I am off to hide with my book in bed.

Rosa · 30/10/2007 09:16

Hello hello grey and windy here in Venice not that nice but it could be worse !
I need new shoes but looked at brogues and dh diddn't like them so am unsure now. Pippi how are dds spots and red bum any better?? Am looking for flights now for Christmas and must book soon or prices will go up. Take a picture when you all meet up and e mail it to me please - I am sure youw ill all have a fab time !

francagoestohollywood · 30/10/2007 11:45

PIPPI??? how are you? have you received my cat?

hothell, have replied . Don't be anxious, it is going to be the three of us, it'll be less embarassing than being just 2.
Also we have lots of things to discuss:
Bevilacqua
brogues/shoes in general
Elsa morante and Natalia Ginzburg
Pippi's pregnancy
If everything fails there's the usual popular topic of "schools"

Rosa, gosh, it's been a horrible weatehr for a while now, hasn't it? It's lovely and sunny here
we'll keep you updated on the meet up

one of my dearest friend in Italy ha il 42.

OP posts:
hotHELL · 30/10/2007 11:58

42??? io il 40. Dov'e Pippi? E i vermi? Secondo me non erano vermi. When she mentioned threadworms i immediately had this image of pippi's dd being one of those scruffy Victorian children.

francagoestohollywood · 30/10/2007 12:17

I think they are quite common. Me and my brother had them in the Seventies, and my mum has always been obsessively clean. I'm feeling crappola today. shouted at dd because she refused to have breakfst. yesterday she refused to eat minestra which used to be one of her favourites. She'd live on mozzarella and parma ham, which is going to ruin our finances, at least when living here.

OP posts:
Rosa · 30/10/2007 13:39

My dd is starting to get so fussy with eating and she refuses to try anything new unless its a different type of biscuit !! I get so frustrated as well as I am running out of menus and when she sits there and says no no no ( she hasn't learnt yes yet ) I just want to scream!
I had vermi when I was little they reckoned it was from eating apples without washing them. Plus we were forever out in the garden and probably did not wash our hands properly.
It is still raining and I have to go out and I know I will get wet feet !! Yesterday was sunny and I had washing but no ammorbidente so I thought I will wait until today - bad move

francagoestohollywood · 30/10/2007 14:04

Lol at the ammorbidente (scusa rosa ).
Yes, they always go through a picky stage when they are 2. or they keep changing their tastes (ds e' un mangione, and I never had major problems with his eating, yesterday he ate dd's minestra avanzata! but he does sometimes "chage" tastes). I've run ut of menus as well. In the last 2 weeks she refused: trota (which she used to like), minestra, bistecca, she's never eaten eggs and she doesn't like chips...

OP posts:
Rosa · 30/10/2007 16:45

dd will not eat anything plain like meat or fish it has to be in some kind of sugo , ragu , spezzatino polpete etc. She has now gone of just about all verdure and I can get her to eat puree if she has something else she likes. MInestra is a bit of a battle unless there is big pasta in it. She now hates egg pasta so tortellini , ravioli etc Havent tried egg for a while but that was a no go.. She will eat fruit and pane so I guess wil not starve. Its still raining !!

Hot tub? Blissfull....
Ds is a mangione too, though recnetly decided he doesnt like weetabix anymore, after 3 years and a half of having them every morning. He now wants porridge which is such a bore to do in the morning...lazy me.
