I never even thought anyone would find my tales 'compelling' to quote you, or even find my wafflings at all for that matter. I hope you continue to read and enjoy what I enjoy jotting down!!</p><p>PS Hope your back gets better very soon.</p>AlexTue, 11 Jan 2005 18:36:00 -0000http://www.blogfromitaly.com/the-government/#comment-2371489<p>Hello,<br>I would e-mail you but the blog doesn't allow it, so I thought I'd post you a comment instead. I am simply a fellow Blogger, and came across your blog through the random "next blog" button. I don't know why, but I just found your blog compelling! I like the way you write, probably because it is without pretence, plus it's really interesting reading about your perspective on life in Italy as an Englishman. The funny thing about a blog is that you know you're reading the musings of a real person that have not been published for profit or fame, but simply as a means of expression. This makes them much more interesting than just print-journalism, which always has something driving it. So, I guess that's why I like your blog. I too am a foreigner - an Englishman in Glasgow! You can read my blog at <a href="http://mykindofhonesty.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" title="mykindofhonesty.blogspot.com">mykindofhonesty.blogspot.com</a> - though it is a rather disjointed affair and maybe won't interest you at all! Good luck with the teaching.<br>Yours, Danny</p>DannyTue, 11 Jan 2005 12:30:00 -0000
