No food in the supermarkets, WTF. I don't think I've ever seen that.

Manc

but then goes onto talk about buying her groceries at Marks and Sparks.

and there's this one: "We have stop signs so pedestrians don’t fear for their lives every time they cross the street."

That's because you never learnt how to cross the street as a kid, dear.

Hard to find words to describe what a load bollocks and crap this article is. Thank god she decided to retreat to the comfort of the USA for the rest of her silly life.</FONT>

When I was growing up it was where posh people bought their food.

At least she realised America is over-indulgent and takes everything for granted.

"In America, we have rights, not privileges. In Italy, there is a cover charge just to sit down at a table for dinner and use silverware."

How dare they!

"In America, we can go out to dinner every night of the week and demand to be treated in whatever way we desire, and then have that expectation fulfilled without question.""

Goes without saying - it's the 22nd Amendment to the Constitution, isn't it?

"Sometimes I felt like Virginia Woolf’s Clarissa Dalloway walking to buy her flowers"

Aaaaaaaaahhh!!! But IIRC, her party didn't turn out quite how she had hoped...

Priceless. Thanks for brightening my day, Manc - karma coming your way!

[Sorry, no karma left for you - have to spread it first apparently...)

Manc

more likely this..........
In Italy they rip off silly little American girl tourists who go swanning about to fancy places because they know it will be charged back to Daddy's credit card.

It took her looking the wrong way, crossing the street and nearly getting run over to realize she's an American and she got all A's?

You get a 'B' if you can spell your last name correctly.
