The best bit about Rome is with a pinay you will never be lost as so many phills there. Especially hanging round the central station on a Saturday or Sunday.

Although due to the economic situation in Italy foreigners are not always treated so well as we found out last week generally Phill are treated quite well by Italians Compared to other non European looking foreigners.
Thanks, my wife is really looking forward to it.
Seems she's working again tomorrow morning too. She finds it hard to refuse. As a carer she has much more conscience about the job than the management (it seems)

In my previous life as a Railway Engineer I spend lots of great times in Italy. We had offices all over.
Funny thing though, I never actually got to Vatican City so I'm also very excited.
