      Buonasera Matteo

      And that's almost the limit of my (phrasebook) Italian, even though one of my collections is Regia Aeronautica stuff (kits, books, monographs, museum visits!). Fortunately I have a tame translator in Andy the Sheep!
      Ciao!

            Welcome to the forum there is a great group of people on here. One thing I should mention is the cooking samples are required to be tested
            This sound such a good idea if we plan someday a live reunion!

            Thank you! And don't worry, I'm not familiar with the "slang" that youngsters use in English these days, so I'll make sure to express myself as clearly as possible. Haha

            I look forward to seeing you around the parish :thumb2:,
            (I don't know what it's like to be 28, not because I haven't reached it yet...... it's just so long ago!!).
            Thank you! and nowdays believe me, it's not as exciting as you can imagine being 28! sometimes I wish I was born decades before.

            Thank you, Tony! My primary passion lies in my work. It might sound mundane, but I've had a love for web development ever since I took my first steps with Windows XP and an old Pentium 3 machine, creating web pages in 800x600 px resolutions. Haha, I guess you could say I'm a bit of a nerd! However, I also have a range of other fascinating interests. From cinema and cuisine to boxing and fishing. Also farming (I hail from a village), driving old cars, especially my grandpa's old Fiats and Lancias.

            Hi Mike, thank you! I'm happy to hear that you enjoyed your time here! Next time you need any tourist advice, feel free to reach out to me. I've lived all across the country, from the north to the south, so I know my way around pretty well.


            I didn't expect to receive so many messages. It's been a wonderfully warm welcome. Thank you, everyone! I already feel like I'm part of the community!

            Ciao a tutti,
            Matteo

                          Oh NOW you've gone and done it!
                          Like I said, Andrea (aka Andy the Sheep) has been providing invaluable translation assistance in my Breda Ba.44 build, over in the Biplane Group Build. I did visit Rome a few years back, spent one day seeing most of the city (it looks bigger in the movies!), and one day at Vigna de Valle museum. And all the video and photos I took there I can no longer access because my camera overwrote the date stamp on the memory card!

                          Aargh!
                          And it used to be SO easy to pop across the Moat and visit!
