Ground Zero & the OK Corral
I’ve noticed that whereas we call the ground floor – G for Ground, and in the US they call it – 1 for Ground, in the hotel lift (or elevator for our US readers) it is called – 0, hence

The Vicar falls the second time
Check out the crazy paving. Can’t imagine a chariot ride along this via. A bone-shaker. Glad I was wearing sensible flats, even then I could have gone in the ankle or fetlock. There are certainly plenty of sights to see

Love among the ruins
Just as in Fitzroy Gardens, on a Saturday you can’t avoid being in someone’s wedding photos in Rome. Or should I say that you can’t avoid having other people in your wedding photos – lots of other people. Despite the

The Vicar falls the first time
It had to happen when you spend your day looking through the lens of a camera. Just as I took this photo I stepped on something and whoops. I was distracted by the bath. Council pick-up day perhaps? Or for

No hat nor map Saturday
I shouldn’t start the day by saying ‘Bonjour’ in the breakfast room. I know this is wrong, but it keeps slipping out. It is worse if you are trying to keep a low profile in the off-chance that the breakfast

Spain wants its steps back
I was probably lucky to have snapped this shot before the steps are repossessed, at any rate luckier than the bloke who gets to wear the Roman legion outfit all day. Poor Spain – still you can never have too

Alexandra the Great
What a joy to be back on the via Veneto at the Hotel Alexandra. I’m not sure if Vittorio Veneto was a relative of Maria Venuti, but I sure you can google that if interested. Certainly this is a buxom

Destination Barcelona
I arrived in Rome on time (thank you BA codeshare QF). This was slightly surprising as the flight map on the overhead TV screens, the only thing to watch during the journey, had the plane bound for Barcelona. No one

Pajama party
The Qantas pajamas developed a life of their own. Comfy – yes; attractive – not so when viewed in the mirror of an aircraft toilet where you have to adopt the posture of a hunchback just to gain access. Nonetheless
