OP posts:
gio71 · 26/10/2009 17:54

love Romanzo Criminale, mainly due to shagability of Kim Rossi Stuart who I love! Minerva I had same reaction re shopping habits after reading Gomorra.
Pippi am for you re docs.
Rosa glad wedding went well.
Been to Bambino Jesu for a change. DS has been reinfected again with bloody croup! So back to cortisone. Never ending. I am beyond tired!

JavierBardem · 26/10/2009 17:59

I mean WHERE is Brange, not Who!

lol at "I am soo out of it now.." had visions of Camo on coke or something.

JavierBardem · 26/10/2009 18:02

What is croup in Italian?

gio71 · 26/10/2009 18:32

laringotracheite I think Javier

JavierBardem · 26/10/2009 18:42

Blimey! Poor him, he had just settled in school.And poor him.

JavierBardem · 26/10/2009 18:43

And Poor you, I meant.

francaghostohollywood · 26/10/2009 19:10

Oh no gio poor ds and poor you, it's never ending ! And he's just got used to nursery . Poor little fellow.

Javier lol lol lol at the image you have got of me. Sadly is not that glamorous, mainly due to the lack of matinees in Milanese cinemas (have I complained already by the increasing number of cinemas closed in the city centre because of the bloody multisala in periferia, which of course I'm too snobby to attend? ) and lack of money to buy daily bags.

I have texted Brange, I hope she is fine, I miss her.

DemonBradleySlaysPippi · 26/10/2009 19:16

Franca do you know Accorsi? Yes is Brange ok?

I thought it was so unrealistic that passion and so fuori luogo. The other love story was ok at its beginning, a bit OTT after. really accorsi recita like this: " No perche'.... [mega pausa] io non lo so se..... [mega pausa]" etc very theatrical. Not good for a movie in general especially that one. Also the prostitute was doppiata wasn't she? Wonder why. It didn't sit well imho. I wish I could watch more italian movies. Not a fan of KR-S look but a good actor.

Had a great day with friend and kids.

Poor minigio .

Minipippi not herself, lots of cough when in bed. boh.

Both DDs have second names.

Minerva and that's just the beginning. At the end of the book you will question even the tomatoes that you eat and the holiday you take in Villaggi Turistici (I did). Good Luck! This reminds me I must starts his new one.

Oh heavens Gio that is scary - I once thought dd1 was having an attack and I remember shouting at dh to just put the hot shower on full boil the kettle as I sat on the bathroom floor with her. Try and get 30 mins sleep when your dp is at home - during the day go somewehere where you cannot hear him ....It does wonders for you !
Yes to middle names here. dd1 named after dh boat ( FGS ) who was also his grandmothers name and minirosa has my surname as her middle name - remember the saga in the commune?
Wedding outfits - the best was lady 40 ish. Black leggings with turnups and silver squares on the bottoms. Pale tights and massive pointed stilettoes. Purple silky tunic thing and loads of gold bling.
Couple fo very dodgy gold and silver lamè tops ( more the nonni). DD1 looked great in her outfit and I felt ok then I saw the pics ..Called the dietologo I can have an appointment in January - Great thanks just intime for my holiday !
As for those names Minerva It must be a troll.....

DemonBradleySlaysPippi · 26/10/2009 19:54

Gio Rosa how does this croup sounds and how do they spot it?

OP posts:
Rosa · 26/10/2009 20:00

Its a horrible horrible cough more dry than usual they are often gasping for breath . Docs obviously can tell by listening to the chest. It is not nice.

TheMysticMasseuse · 26/10/2009 20:02

croup is the barking whistling coughing in the middle of the night no? dd1 had it a couple of times but not too bad and thankfully i knew what it was from a book or a website and i just did a lot of steam and it was ok. but so sorry to hear babygio is so unwell. and all the others...

got up at 5 this mroning as dd2 has really not taken to the clocks going back or forward or whatever nonsense. i am dead and heading to bed, approfittando that dh is not here...

francaghostohollywood · 26/10/2009 20:06

No, I don't know Accorsi, but you know how over opinionated I am when it comes to celebrities .
The prostitute is doppiata because I think that the actress is French.
Brange is not getting back to me, I hope she's all right.

francaghostohollywood · 26/10/2009 20:11

Rosa, lol at the outfits at the wedding, especially the lame' tops!

Pippi, I obviously missed lots of Italian movies in the last ten yrs, being in the UK. I think you should try and watch Le conseguenze dell'amore, La ragazza del lago, Il divo, Le fate ignoranti, Caos calmo...

JavierBardem · 26/10/2009 20:32

Il divo has just arrived at Lovefilm, also they have Le Fate and probably Caos Calmo.

What is La Ragazza del Lago?

at sick kiddies!

I totally agree with the way Accorsi acts/does not act. I thought the girl spoke italian with a french accent cause she is french?

Do you have something like Lovefilm in Italy?

JavierBardem · 26/10/2009 20:33

Oh I love Le conseguenze and L'amico di famiglia. I think Sorrentino is a genius.

DemonBradleySlaysPippi · 26/10/2009 20:33

Le fate ignoranti I have seen many times and really like it. Il divo is on my list. Will try the others too, thanks.

I imagine something like it. But the voce doppiata is sooo wrong as it is the same one they use for everything else, soap, cheap american movies etc so 'stona proprio'.

Hmm if it wasn't for the dr chcking minipippi's chest this morning I'd worry she's got croup too. Her night cough is dreadful poverina.

nothing on tv. might go to bed early to and read.

OP posts:
francaghostohollywood · 26/10/2009 20:38

la ragazza del lago with the usually splendid tony servillo.

No, we don't have lovefilm. It wouldn't be doable with our post system. I miss it like crazy. I do catch up with some movies when I visit pil who have got sky. Or I buy dvds.

DemonBradleySlaysPippi · 26/10/2009 20:39

I have added yours on my list JB. Unfortunately those two you have mentioned are not available on lovefilm franca.

Can I ask you something about nits? Do your children get them often? Did you get them yourself? What did you/would you/will do about it? I am living in constant paranoia.

OP posts:
JavierBardem · 26/10/2009 20:44

Ds had it once and was told to get this for free from gp and it worked wonders. www.nittygritty.co.uk/site/

I had originally bought another type of comb which did not remove the eggs. The NittyGritty does. I reccommend it. NEVER of course use lotions as they contain pesticides.

I love Servillo, he is from my parts. [happy]
Altro che quel cazzone di Accorsi.

JavierBardem · 26/10/2009 20:45

Cannot believe I have written that about Accorsi. Should I get it deleted?

DemonBradleySlaysPippi · 26/10/2009 20:49

NO!!! It made me really laugh out loud!!!!

OP posts:
francaghostohollywood · 26/10/2009 20:51

. No I doubt that Accorsi would ever come across mn. Unless of course Bucharest doesn't tell her dh, her dh tells Scamy and you are fregata
Oh Scamy...

My dc have never got nits yet. I caught them only once on the ferry from Greece. I was 18.

DemonBradleySlaysPippi · 26/10/2009 20:51

YUK at website. It made my head go all itchy !

Friend mentioned it as well. Did you use those products as well?
