In other news from freezing Italy...

I've been rewatching Buffy The Vampire Slayer. The woman whose flat I'm staying in has all series one to six. I'm halfway through series three and plan to finish them all before Christmas. That will only leave series seven - how the world was really saved - which I'll probably borrow from a video club, just so I can say I've completed them all.

I do not understand the Italian obsession with blankets. How can they not understand the undeniable advantages of duvets? They have quilts (like thick bedspreads) but duvets?!?

How come there is no public transport to the big supermarkets here? It isn't even as if the stores are really out of town, merely on the edges but relatively inaccessible if you don't have a car. Why is this? Are non-car owners not welcome? Guess I'll have to depend on the goodwill of some friends.

Right, that's about all that's been wittering through my mind.
