Catching up
Hi all just wanted to say who those who might have wondered where i had disappeared to lol- that i am staying in italy all summer because when we were away we heard that the swine flu was really serious (we are in the middle of nowhere really) and decided to just extend the time away. There is one computer in the local bar lol so writing on here is complicated and somewhat surreal... (italian keyboard too) so excuse dodgy punctuation etc...
Anyway hope everyone is well, just thought i would say hello as love abctales community and just wanted to explain situation to anyone who might be interested!
Would love to try and post somethin but dont see how realistic that is...
Ciao x
P.s with any luck this experience could be a good story sometime

Hi Sunday, I hope you have a great holiday!
I wouldn't belive all you read as I've recently returned to the UK and it doesn't seem to be anywhere near as bad as the media paint it.
My thoughts are that it is probably best to get it over with anyway, as it is still a 'mild' flu in most cases, and, there is a good chance that it will mutate later and be much worse for those who haven't already had it.

Indeedy - good to hear from you Sundays Child - but I have had a form of the swine flu (the doctor said it was 'subliminal' swine flu!) and whilst I felt like poo for almost three weeks it wasn't really that bad. Coem home - it isn't that bad! Mind you an extended stay in Italy is always good in my book - I adore the country. We shall look forward to your Italian writings when you return.

I had swine flu and twas nothing but a sniffle. As a malthusian, I'm half hoping for a deadly second wave.

Nice to hear that you are keeping well, Domenichina.
The swine flu provides a good excuse to stay in Italy a bit longer. Whereabout are you? In the South?
I shall be in Rapallo at the end of the month and looking forward to it.

Glad to hear that you are keeping well in sunny Italy. Hope that you get lots of scribbling done while you're there and come back to abc before too long. We've missed you!

hello sundays child - italy is a nice place to hide, but if you want to come back, don't worry about the flu - it's peaked here now anyway - far fewer cases than before - and even if you get it, it really isn't a big deal - the worst part is feeling tired afterwards. hope you come back soon - you were the first person who ever commented on the first thing I put up on here and it made a big difference to me at the time : )
