Re: You're on form today, Dave Tea at this time of day... how thoroughly awful. Afternoon tea is served at 4pm with cucumber sandwiches, not that you'd know pie muncher !
Re: Thank you X 2 Have you ever been to Rome? Amazing to think that everywhere right beneath your feet and in front of your face is ancient history. I'd have looked in every nook and crany there was but her and the kids wanted to do even more shopping :-(
I haven't mate, no If I could choose a site, away from my present work, then it'd definitely be Troy. I'd leave this mortal coil a happy man if I was afforded the opportunity to work there.
Re: Thank you X 2 Visited Rome just under 2 years ago and was in awe at the place, Florence this March and then Jordan. And squeeze Bath in between that and you have a lot of Roman!!!! And quite a lot in Turkey and Tunisia, El Jem is even more spectacular than its Roman counterpart
Re: Thank you X 2 Rome is superb, not just the colosseum and the forum but the Vatican area & St Peters. Florence for the Uffizi the duomo I could go on and on (and frequently do )
Re: Thank you X 2 Yawn, Yawn, Yawn. You only go to Iatlia; a) You are drawn to Facismo b) You like to smoke Dina cigarettes c) You want to pick up new pasta ideas
Re: Thank you X 2 I know the feeling fella! Constantly rave about Rome. To think Nero's former Palace still exists, the Forum, the column of Marcus Aurelias, the incredible collections in the Vatican museum and churches galore... and add to that good beer, good wine, amazing food... pretty hard to beat.
Re: Thank you I once saw these playing a gig in a Roman ampitheatre in Lyon http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7YJ7FWLE3pU
Re: You're not helping! The treasury at Petra by night.... really doesn't do it justice but the day time pics are on the main camera, so you'll have to wait for those! ;-)
Re: You're not helping! I really appreciate the time and effort when posting your photographs, mate. Thank you.
Re: Thank you X 2 a)So what if my best mate Paolo gets a little worked up ? b)As for 'Dina' I thought the only Dina you'd know of is the type you stuff down your pie hole. c) I pick up ideas to cook whereas the only type of pasta (see point b)
Re: Thank you X 2 Let's face it, most of Rome should be knocked down. It is more than eight years old, after all.
Re: Thank you X 2 That's not much of a riposte is it. If you don'rt come up with something at least insulting then I'll find a new partner in crime... flounces off... oh and use ****ing quotes... it's a bugger to follow otherwise !
