Annoying things.

A few little "gripes" that have got me today...

Puffer Jackets.  They are the height of fashion here but a pet hate of mine that comes from the 1990's!  Every colour, type of stitching, every size, every human being has one.  Old, young, male, female, children, babies....and what I find funny is that my Italian friends explain that they are warm.  Fine...I understand that.  But if they are so warm why are some people still layering all their clothing underneath?  One girl I saw today had a top, jumper, a wool based jacket AND a puffer jacket on.  Hello?  It's still 18 degrees.  Not exactly Alaska.

Face Paint.  It's Halloween.  Ok, I can't see that fancy dress is popular here but still.  Face Paint.  Where is it?  I know it exists because we've got it at school.  But I haven't found it yet.  Typical!  Toy Shops are apparently a good place to head so I'm off to the big toy shop in Montesilvano (once I've finished my scones for lunch!).

I have, however, had a really nice cappuccino today.  Plus, it was from the bar near my house.  Amazing!
