Fri 13th November

It's Friday night and i'm totally shattered! It's been a good week, I'm feeling more confident at driving, which is a good thing as i now have another childrens group- in Correggio, which is another town and i have to drive there on Tuesday! I might ask if i can take the car out for a spin over the weekend, the more practice i get the better.
I went out for pizza with Alessandro on Wednesday, we went to 'Condor' which is a good pizzeria in the centre and I teach the owners daughter so i always get a table! He is very patient with my Italian and tries to answer all my questions!
I have bought and Italian phone this week, all by myself and all in italian! I was very pleased with myself, and fairly sure i've got the right package! my italian is improving all the time and there is such a sense of achievement from talking to someone in a foreign language-badly or otherwise!
Next week we have a long weekend (there's a public holiday) so Sil and I might go down to a little place near Florence she's heard of. It's supposed to be beautiful and it's near Florence, which helps. She's going to look into hiring a car, which scares the Bejesus out of me but so did the thought of coming here, so far so good!
