What the weekend was for me.

friday - hot, grr, met lizey in the park after spending the day translating. We blobbed and waited for Sian who is coming to Italy with us. Lizey is worried I think, that Sian will 'invade' our trip and wanted to make sure everyone knew where they stood. PLus Sian is going ot be travelling with this guy who apparently loves to stay in 5 star hotels which we WILL NOT be doing. Then mark was sending me mesage sbaout the wine he was drinking so I wsa forced, forced I say, to go and meet him for a drink. On the way I got drenched running a block and a half, no shoes, willling myself not to slip over on the pavement, skirt went transparent So i arrived, dripping in the bar, amongst all the friday suits, and mark laughed but sweet phillipe bought me a big serviette to dry myself.

saturday - got up and went for breakky with lizey, ate pancakes, mango, nectarines, coffee, icypoles :ssh: sat outside, listened to nick cave, felt hot. Went home, drank some beer, then took inlaws to the rialto, then to mecca bah, so eating was in order. Went home and put my feet in cold water as they were swollen slept downstairs.

sunday - mucked around lying on our makeshift bed downstairs, finally got up and had a shower (sauna) in the bathroom, so bloody hot. Mark wne t and bought breakky, bless, read paper, read Zadie Smith, translated Italian, read book, sudoku, translated Italian, read book, paper, compained about heat, drank beer, watched cricket, got sick of translating, just read book.
