The weather is unabated and the endless hot sunny days are draining in a landlocked city. But yesterday was quite productive. I went in the morning with Chris who dropped me at Mr Ping’s, the Chinese Roman ‘artist’ I am devoted to to do my hair!!! So I have a Mr Ping hair cut and colour and am looking more gorgeous than I will ever look again !! I must say he is a genius hair cutter.
My black travel back has been slowly disintegrating but I thought I’d be able to use it to get me home. However the day before yesterday the wire of the disintegrated zip got caught in my dress and ripped a massive hole in it. That was it for the black bag…it was to be punished in a rubbish bin. So after Mr Ping I set out to buy myself a bag and was very pleased with my purchase of a leather bag. The sales are huge in August so it was 50% off….what more can I want. A most pleasing morning. Home for a rest, Chris goes off to meet up with friends so I loll about, then go out and have an aperitif at the local wine bar.
Chris and I went out and ate last night just at a local restaurant, sitting outside on a warm Roman night. Pretty good life. Today is Sunday and Chris is off to her friends place in the country to pick up her plants so she will be away for the night.
Only 3 more sleeps til I get back on the plane for the hateful trip home but I’m really looking forward to getting home now…can’t wait to see you all.
Loris would have been 100 tomorrow. She wanted to make it!! She would have been besotted with Louis!!
