Welcome everyone

Non ho capito, vuoi guardarti un episodio della famiglia Bradford? Lolllllllll! Posso chiedere. Hai visto se sono in vendita da qualche parte?

ho appena trovato la sigla di Furia, lol.

Yes, I want to watch la famiglia Bradfrod. There are dvds on sale in the USA, so in a different system that it's not watchable here. I think there is an AOL website where you can watch episodes for free, but non riesco a scaricarli con il mio mac... grrrrrrrrrr
FURIA (mi metteva un po' in ansia furia)

chiedero'.
i also found heidi and remi.

and also Quelli della notte con Ma la notte no.

hothell and franca ????? what are u watching ladies ?? Did that mattia thingy win san remo a few years ago ?? I have to be honest since getting sky 2 years ago i never watch italian tv, although dh likes striscia and annozero.
Its still bloody cold here, although sun is shining, we've got the stuffa a legno on so nice and warm
well good news ladies, after almost giving up on a) my dream of living in italy and b) dh's dream of bringing up his kids in his nice, safe home village we have survived at the 11th hour. We have 15 euro in our pockets and dh had just been offered a job, in regola, 900 euro a month for first year, rising every year working in the office of a vivaio near Marsala ! I know 900 euro is not alot but when u've got nothing .......... I just want to be able to live here and let me kids grow up here !!
So Cheers !!!

brilliant news michymama, so so happy for you all !!

we are talking old 1970s/early 80s pop italian culture.
hothell I'm watching an episode of candy candy on youtube

Congratulazioni!!!! It is hard in Italy without a job, hope it works out.
I am watching old italian videos, stuff from my childhood. It's fun!

candy candy

i never got to see what happened to candy!

A bit disappointing the end of Candy. Not clear what has happened to Terence.

And now Voglio vederti danzare di Battiato.

terence got engaged with the actress who lost her legs to save his life but in the last episodes candy reads the newspapers that says he has separated ! I've just watched the first episode in japanese!!!!!

He married her out of pity? WTF? At least in the last episode Remi foud out that his real mum was a millionaire, la signora Milligan. Now i am listening to Cerco un centro di gravita permanente.

Battiato live even now is an old guy, is fantastic. I am on ecstasy here.

I saw him live a teatro in the early 90s. very good. When I was 12 I went to Paris with my parents by car and we listened to cerco un centro di gravita' permanente cassetta the whole time. I remember my dad singign "il senso del possesso che fu pre-alessandrino".
Accidentally that was the same holiday when I read Lessico famigliare for the first time. that was a very important holiday .
I also love battiano because many of his songs are in Nanni Moretti's movies. Have I told you already how much I love moretti's movies. I might have.

did you see il camaino?

no, I wasn't in Italy when it was on. my fav is la messa e' finita. or bianca?
all of them really.

eccebombo, l'esame di maturita'

Very funny!

Thanks for ur messages ! We went to have a chat with CGIL today and they said 900 euro is good for round here !
Lessico familiare is that by natalie ginzberg ? I read that when I was a babysitter in milan, was very proud of myself !

Michymama , thats a relief am pleased for you as it will help you with your dream !!
Candy Candy ....mmmm bit like polenta not really me.
Oh yipee its just started raining must go and do some xmas shopping on line of course !!

900 is not bad at all! My db earns 1000 euros a month and has to live in Milan (luckily he also manages to work free lance on his day off work).
si, lessico famigliare is by natalia ginzburg, did you read it mm?
I'm mildly pissed off with dh, I think I need a rrrrrraaaaaaannnntttttt

I know the feeling well..RANT away !! Still raining and I have not managed to shop at all!!!! Just can't decide on anything and dd will be waking up soon and we will be in this pm !

Rant, rant! We here to listen to you moaning.
Have finished a translation which arrived this am, it was very short, but still pennies coming in.

Just had a major litigata and he always manages to talk me into thinking I'm unreasonable. I feel he is not doing anything about this removal/ moving countries/selling houses, etc etc. He thinks I don't take pride into doing something from start to finish. .
