| 31st May 2009 Greg | Cliffhanger - From: Getting started.. Ooohh, what will happen next? |
| 30th September 2008 angelina | - From: L is for Language typical...hehe |
| 12th September 2008 Tom Carver | I’d be a very noble pig - From: I is for Italy (but first, some stuff about rabbits and pigs) You may notice this phrase coming up in future conversations. All of them. I don't think it'll ever get old. Just so you've been warned. |
| 30th July 2008 Wellborne | Carbonara... - From: F is for Food ...is encompassed in pasta, you darn fool. I'll let you off but only because I'm totally awesome. |
| 28th July 2008 Tom | no Carbonara?!?! - From: F is for Food Monty how could you - neglecting to mention true Italian Spaghetti Carbonara? Blending grated Parmesan with eggs, using it like pesto and relying on the heat of the freshly cooked pasta to cook it so gently it's still sticky... mmmmmm... it's been a staple since the missus' time in Sicily. Shame on you for neglecting it! |
| 25th July 2008 Adam | One of my favourites.... - From: F is for Food I'll hold my hand up and say that I'm a culinary savage (mmmmm.... Rustlers 90 second burgers) however, if you haven't had the chance yet, I would strongly recommend you try carpaccio (sp?) at some point. Essentially, very wafer thin slices of beef. When I had this it was served with sliced of parmesan, pesto and a slice of lemon. I don't know exactly where this would fit in with the whole Italian meal order, but it was damn tasty as a starter! |
| 25th July 2008 Wellborne | Scallops - From: F is for Food I meant to say, but forgot, that I found out 4 hours later, the very hard way, that I'm allergic to Scallops. Which means, Rickers & Costin, that when I was ill after that meal it wasn't the vast quantities of wine or anything else that made me ill, so hah! That is all. FIN |
| 24th July 2008 Rickers | - From: F is for Food Having flicked through the Times restaurant reviews (Coren, Gill and god help us Winner!) before catching up with my favorite englishman abroad, I have to say I see a new career for you. Witty, informative and vicious in equal quantities, bravo sir, good to see that standards are being maintained. G for Girls? Excellent, bring on the filth! |
| 19th July 2008 Your old man !!! | - From: E is for Excursions (new one included) They don't do roast lamb here in Germany either. Sounds like you are having a great time. Waiting for the G for girls |
| 8th July 2008 Angelina | - From: E is for Excursions (new one included) Sounds pretty awesome :) |
| 5th July 2008 Greg | Top 250, 2 - From: D is for Days Off Oh yeah and this http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/7489278.stm |
| 5th July 2008 Greg | Top 250 - From: D is for Days Off This has nothing to do with your blog but thought I'd write it here as it's not long enough for an e-mail. I'm struggling. I thought Sky Movies would help but we've seen all the ones they are showing. But I did manage to get Aliens and Ben Hur for £3 each so that's two more, might let you borrow them whenever you return but depends if I've seen the last season of Seinfeld and calmed down by then. |
| 5th July 2008 David Costin | Wet - From: C is for Customers, amongst other things... Well my old bean remembered to check your blog at long last after hearing the Rick go on about it. It is currently pissing it down so nothing better to do than sit back with the laptop and peruse. Only down side is the shitty Sky BB has packed up. Just back from Glasto and have a new job where we get an hour for lunch so will have time to read more soon. Keep up the good work! |
| 13th June 2008 Rickers | Bravo! - From: Venice. Yeppers. As excellent as always my friend, bringing to a close the first chapter of Monty's Great Italian Adventure. |
| 30th May 2008 Adam | - From: Finally....some more words.... There is nothing wrong with a good cave. I think you may just be stuck in the recent past (read last 2000 - 3000 years) and may not appreciate the larger sense of time that those caves represent. There's the earth scientist in me talking! |
| 17th May 2008 Wellborne | Bra... - From: Finally....some more words.... ....boobs....hehehehheh..... |
| 16th May 2008 Sue | Piazza Bra - From: Finally....some more words.... Just how old are you boys? |
| 14th May 2008 Wellborne | Racist - From: Finally....some more words.... Oh, you said snigger.... And yes, I sniggered too...it was quite a disappointing square upon first arrival... |
| 13th May 2008 Greg | Ha ha - From: Finally....some more words.... Piazza Bra, snigger |
| 27th April 2008 Greg | Photos - From: Photos I like pictures |
| 25th April 2008 Wellborne | And... - From: Photos Due to the stupidty of either myself or the internet, the photos are in reverse order, so start on page 2. |
| 25th April 2008 Wellborne | Link - From: Photos Copy the link into the address bar and then it will work. Sorry, damn computers! |
| 23rd April 2008 Rickers | Keeping the British end up. - From: Jesolo di Lido Endlessly entertaining and remarkably informative, good show Sir. |
| 21st April 2008 Wellborne | Past Tense, Past Schmense - From: Corsica to Italy Now, as I believe you are aware, I am a revisionist linguist and will ruthlessly cut aside precedent for the langauge of the future. C'est tou. (See, I removed the 't' at the end there, completley unnecessary). |
| 19th April 2008 Eriba pedant | Travel writer - From: Corsica to Italy You should be a travel writer - strangely lucid, entertaining & funny - I really enjoyed reading it. Now for the pedantic bit: I believe the past tense of arriver is je suis arrive. |
| 17th April 2008 David Costin | Blog found - From: The First Post Have suitably found your web blog and when I really have nothing better to be doing (maybe a quite sunday afternoon in July at work) I will be checking back for the update. Having said that there are worse - and better - things to be doing in a Gatwick airport hotel! |
