San Gimignano is one of my favourite places in the entire world and in two weeks time I will be able to take Abbi to see it. She is off to Italy to do her month of Renaissance art and what a treat that will be for her, and we will join her for five days (after all, its only a couple of hours away). And when I drove her to the airport this morning (at 4.30 a.m.) she said when she gets back she would like to visit the National Gallery in London with me, which will be great. Of course, I mentioned we could also consider the Tate and the Tate Modern, she hasn't responded to that yet - one gallery at a time. But its Sunday today and I have plans to play guitar in the garden, tidy my study and generally guddling around as I prepare for the summer. I have a paper to finish for Madrid but it can wait, its the 1st of June and it feels like summer is finally here. Time for some of this, methinks:
