An entertaining write-up and an excellent account! Thank you!
I particularly enjoyed your assumptions as to why it might have taken so long for the Italian Police to make the arrest – sipping cappucinos and conducting random searches on attractive young women driving Fiat 500s.were definitely the most probable reasons, along with wolfing down some pre-siesta salamis and Prosecco or trying on their latest Ray-bans! But a fine of TEN THOUSAND EUROS? Poor bloke! I reckon that must have set back Hungarian-Italian relations a few hundred years to the days of the Roman-Hungarian Empire…..?!

Anyway, keep up these excellent blogs, which regularly keep your readers interested, entertained and informed.
John

Thanks for the suggestion about Winchester – I’ll do that!

I have been a fan of Hiaasen for about ten years now – I love his crazy, outlandish characters. Particularly the senator who tied himself to the centre point of a suspension bridge to experience the eye of a hurricane!

Also, when next in the UK and if anywhere near the S.E. pop into Winchester Cathedral to see the Gormley statues there in the crypt. They too, touch water when the crypt gets flooded.
