@fbaezer,
Parma, you know I love Parma. Not that I know it, though I've read the odd books. I enjoyed being there; it was April. By then I near hated my accompanying traveler. That would get worse.
The guy at the bar sent my wallet left on the counter (blame this on my dark blind eyes and not a small drink) to the hotel, receipt being in my lost wallet that turned out to be i.d. Viva la Parma and Hotel Button. (probably caffe orientale)
I remember you sniffed re Parma. Maybe I would too with more time. Good to me, though.
I haven't mentioned that we have lost eurocelticyankee over some a2k mishugas.
I am feeling bereft.
Oh, wait, it was a small drink. I don't remember italians serving large ones.
I misworded.
