About This Blog

I am a visually impaired man. Because I can't always see what's going on, I keep my ears open. Sometimes, I hear some funny stuff, so I thought I would share them with you! Any thoughts I had during the exchanges are placed in square brackets and I'm sometimes even involved in the conversations myself. So remember, if you're talking - I'm listening...

ItalianOMG!

One thing I like about the coffee house culture which has emerged in recent years is the fact that people seem connected with each other and relaxed. They let their guard down. They share. And they forget they are in public...:

Signora 1: My and the hubby have just booked a holiday.
Signora 2: Oh great! You two deserve a break.
Signora 3: Yeah.
Signora 1: We're going to Tuscany.
Signora 2: It's beautiful. I went there a couple of years ago. It's so beautiful.
Signora 3: Yeah.
Signora 2: You'll both love it.
Signora 3: Yeah.
Signora 2: I love Italy. It's my favourite country.
Signora 1: I love it too. All the culture and the food and the scenery.
Signora 3: Yeah.
[Richard: I'm starting to think Signora 3 is a bit special at this point.]
Signora 1: Is that why you like it too?
Signora 2: No. It's the men. Phwoar - the men! I love a bit of Italian sausage.
[Richard: Thanks for sharing.]
