Well, in two days it will be September and, so Autumn.
Actually, since last weekend, it’s felt like Autumn. There’s been quite a bit of rain and the nights are cold. So much so that two nights ago we put the sort-of-duvet on the bed again. I don’t think I’ve ever done it so early!
Apart from the cold weather and rain which I do hate, Autumn/September brings one other thing – the Mantova book festival – Festivaletteratura!.
Once again, F will be too busy to come, which is a shame. In fact, for this festival he will be away in Greece opening new stores/concessions for the company. However, in another way, it’s kind of better in that I get to do what I want and see what I want. There’s also the slight possibility that I shall be able to stay overnight which would be great because maybe I can go to Scritture Giovani – which I love.
So we shall see but, in any case, I shall go for the Saturday and, depending on the weather, hope to have my usual stroll around the town, go to some events and meet up with old friends (and eat some lovely food).
It’s really brightened up this cold, miserable, rainy day for me 
HI ANDY – hope you have a wonderful time at your book festival despite the weather if it stays rainy and or cold. It is our b’days/anniversary today so we are being together, going to eat out (hopefully I will feel ok) and also my scooter arrived so Skipp is reading the instructions of assembly. Oh my…..
Have a great weekend Andy and Happy Autumn with prayers you get a nice Indian Summer soon
Love Gail
peace….
Happy birthdays and anniversary Gail! I knew it was your birthday but I forgot it was all in one go.
Glad that you’ve got your scooter which, I’m sure, will give you a bit more freedom. Good for Skipp
Thanks, Gail. You too.
