Lightning flashing through the skylights and acqua alta sirens going off. Not conducive to sleep.

@kdfrawg It went ok. Just general introductory stuff though, so no idea yet how the work will turn out.

On the plus side, there was the most amazing selection of food with the afternoon tea/coffee. Tarte tatin, some hot gloopy chocolate stuff, and a range of biscuits that looked home made. I didn’t actually eat any of it, but it makes for a good atmosphere. Maybe I should have signed up for lunch!

Ok. Time to go and check in on the stuff I came here for.

@kdfrawg You’d have liked this then. :)

@kdfrawg I do, thank you.

They called it a torta, so I wasn’t entirely sure what to expect.

@kdfrawg Have some vicarious wandering. :)

This was the aubergine thing.

@kdfrawg It was good — though I was too tired to appreciate much. I had bakes aubergine to start, then lamb cutlets. Not awfully Venetian, but there’s time for that later.

Then I slept like the dead for eight and a half hours.
