Having missed our Bologna friends when we rushed
home after our Tuscany sojourn in July, Ingrid arranged 20 euro each way
Ryanair tickets to the sun this last weekend. This happily coincided with
Krantz and Silvia’s 25th wedding anniversary. As I had been best
man, it was also the 25th anniversary of my once-in-a-lifetime
experience of buying myself a suit. The celebrations took place at Krantz’s
family’s magnificent summer house in the country outside Verona. The guest list
was almost exactly that of the wedding, but with the addition of a generation
of children and a few grey hairs.
The rest of the weekend was spent in the always
pleasant company of Aldo and Pucci. We wandered through the old part of
Bologna, which was made even more pleasant by the temporary provision of large
pedestrian-only areas. Aldo and I talked boats and Pucci and Ingrid were
talking about who knows what. There were, of course, some lovely lunches too.
