Although I don't always comment, every one of your blog posts knocks me sideways with awe - and I have to remind myself you're Italian, your English is so superb. You even wrote "bugger it" in a recent post (my Grandfather would have approved)! What a woman!!!<br />You're the embodiment of your own exceptionally creative "team" - but if you want to join ours, we'll have you like a shot!!! :D<br />Yes, Melanie is wonderful; I'm glad you've met her now.<br />Love SxxAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13330692040971144481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4007848672438884658.post-53467247357992921622016-05-30T15:08:34.466+02:002016-05-30T15:08:34.466+02:00I love your writing! ...

Your setting couldn't have been more elegant and hurrah for your team in helping bring your plan to fruition. Umberto must have been so happy to have made his personal contribution to the fabric of this beautiful piece of art too. 732 days indeed. None of us can really look on into the window of your life and begin to imagine what it must be like living with autism. Umberto's love is your reward. <br />Anna x<br />www.annasislandstyle.comAnna's Island Stylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04997013627919505807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4007848672438884658.post-15326328364773580082016-05-21T17:06:05.459+02:002016-05-21T17:06:05.459+02:00Thank you Sue.

The most I might have managed would have been a few quick snaps (do people in England still say "snaps"?) in poor lighting down a back street. But when she arrived it was clear she expected (and deserved) better :)<br />ps you've raised my curiousity - must just go and Google Visconti Production<br />Baci SxxAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13330692040971144481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4007848672438884658.post-11462982049760014472016-05-20T10:38:57.935+02:002016-05-20T10:38:57.935+02:00Thank you Bonnie, I'm so glad you enjoyed it :...Thank you Bonnie, I'm so glad you enjoyed it :)<br />Love SalxxAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13330692040971144481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4007848672438884658.post-49180578842685327792016-05-20T10:37:46.761+02:002016-05-20T10:37:46.761+02:00Lally!
