notes from a long thin island

ladies what lunch

I've just enjoyed a couple of hours out of school at a nice hotel restaurant. I'd heard of the Royal Park Hotel before: it's in Izumi Park Town & where the Italian team stayed during the 2002 World Cup, among other things. There's a signed drawing of Totti there, next to a sign congratulating Italy on their world cup win. In the midst of my disappointment in England's miserable performance, I'd pretty much forgotten Italy had won this year! On the way back to school, I & the teacher who treated me to lunch, went back on the road the Italian team would have taken to the football stadium that's in my town. We didn't feel guilty about being out of school for too long as the principal had said we could go for lunch & take our time, which we did! I now feel very full, and am meant to be having dinner out with other people tonight...
