after some retouching in the hotel in the morning.
and a proper calzone pizza (no sliced onions inside or bolognese sauce on the outside) for lunch
a car came to take us to the airport.

got in and immediately smelt the lemon magic tree.
didn't have the opportunity to get straight out and find alternative transport as i would usually.

i was coincidentally on the phone to special agent kate at the time who, when i mentioned the magic tree and what kind of trouble i was in, told me to 'get a grip, you drama queen'

made maria ask the driver in spanish (almost close enough) to take down the magic tree.
i would have liked him to have thrown it out of the window rather than just hide it from view.

italian men seem very sensitive: he was clearly upset by the request
(like the hotel guy that almost started crying and then started shouting at me when we said we were leaving the other night)


melinda's quote of the day
i commented to melinda that she always seems to get frisked going through security at the airport.
"i don't mind...i quite like it...she was quite gentle though...i would have preferred it a bit rougher"

back in blighty and straight into a traffic jam on the m25 (home sweet home)

RTF.
feels like i've been away for AGES.
very happy to be back, for a couple of nights at least.
