Hello All,

Here are some of the photos from greece (post the rest tomorrow). Things are pretty calm here at the moment. Last weekend we painted part of the house which took a surprisingly long! Also bought a painting esle whilst at the shop getting the paint so I started painting again which Im enjoying. Also last weekend we went out for pizza with friends.
This week some people are back to work again so Turin is begining to fill up again (a strange thing occures in the holidays, -everyone leaves the cities and everything closes down for all of August. Yes, really everything! The banks the post office, theres only one supermarket and one butcher open in all of Turin! ATM's run out of money, if you are sick you have to hut for a doctor like he's the holy grail. But the begining of September the all reopen and we can all start living again!
Yesterday I did all the shopping and felt like a real little italian housewife, I had to go to the butcher and ask for all the meat and ham that I wanted and then went off to the market (which is just behind Dani's house) and push my way through sleezy glares (the reputation of a sleezy italian does have solid grounding in SOME italian males) to buy all the fruit.
Currently cooking up a plan for this weekends entertainment program!
Love to all
Erin
