There has been a flurry of DIY

In the flat as of late... I guess it's spring cleaning of sort... Alfredo created a new light feature in the sitting room and we finally framed a lovely piece that Miss Woo painted for me a few years back. It's a really beautiful piece. He is called Phoenix and is the calf that survived the foot and mouth out break in the UK a few years back. Both the lights and the painting really make the sitting room much nicer!


Phoenix the calf!!


the new lighting piece!

Beyond that life in baby land is good apart from a few pooplosions... hilarious but very very dangerous for white dressing gowns!

Pooplosion!

When we returned home the other night from our first outing minus baby we found our lovely babysitter sitting on the sofa in this position... I know it well! Chiara looks fab!

Miss Chiara and the girls

While walking home from supper at Luca's house last night we turned the corner onto our street and it was empty so I snapped this shot! Lovely no? Like a snap from a few hundred years ago...

Well we passed the milestone...

of leaving the wee one at home with a sitter and made it to the concert on Saturday night. The venue was half full... the crowd predominently English and the average age well over 30... The girl standing next to me hit the nail on the head when she said 'this concert is for old people' lol. Ian Brown looked pretty destroyed and the sound was too thus it didn't make for a very good concert to be honest... however when he did play two stone roses tracks the place went wild. I felt kind of sorry for him as it must be a pain when you're trying to flog your new work and people are only interested in what you used to do in the past... but it still pays the bills I suppose... Andy Rourke (the bass guitar player for the Smiths) joined him on stage for a while and then was the dj upstairs for the after party... It was pretty funny as I dared Alfredo to go up to him and request that he play a Smiths song... cheeky bugger of course did... and you know what? He played one! Hilarious...

When all was said and done we headed back home and arrived just before 1am to relieve the lovely Chiara of her babysitting duties. She skipped off into the night to join her friends who start their night at 2am... insane! I am indeed an oldie now, but that's fine by me!
