I don't know Franco. What is it? I'm just blatantly chico-ing some text without understanding what I'm pasting.

It was taken from Rosemary Clooney's (George Clooney is the nephew btw) Mambo Italiano which I cannot get out of my head since spending several delightful weeks in Lucca, Tuscany and Bellagio, Lake Como.

Real men don't go to the gym. Real men watch the footie with their hairy arse hanging out their trousers.

Real men do not have lunch. They spend their lunch break at the local gym.

Real men only have immense dinners (of course, made by the woman) and 5 eggs in the morning.

Heh heh...!

Well I could say:

Avocado, fresh mozzarella cheese, hand picked pomodoro and fresh basil and a drizzle of balsamic vinegar. You know, like the flag:

But pizza hut aside, I mean:

Hi Spod, you trying to sell me your car again!?

Like the look of the new RR Sport but I'm going to wait and see how good the build quality is on the new Merc M Class when it arrives. Bought a new TT in February to have some fun about town. One of the solicitors 2 doors up bought a new RR sport, looks a wee bit smaller than the rest of the range but far more aggressive.
