Calendar girl

Thirteen degrees at 9am, with bright sunshine and a fairly strong wind. Still doing the salita in a sleeveless T-shirt.

In Cannobio it's calendar time again, and the first to make it onto the pavement this year is the Sara Varone Calendar 2009. Ms Varone's talents (terrifyingly large breasts, a look reminiscent of Sophia Loren and a degree in psychology, in that order) have brought her a job hosting a Sunday morning chat show called 'Buona Domenica', which vies with the Vatican for air time. And I understand the sometime model is fast becoming an Italian icon.

Despite the fact that, as Ms Varone's publicists are at pains to point out, she is a very intelligent and successful woman who cares about people, and so should be a role model for my 2-year-old daughter, I'd rather her (un-)dress sense was displayed on the top shelf and not at toddler height...

PS Just rescued a baby ghiro from the baby cats, and he's now sleeping off the terror in a nice top-security cardboard box. Anyone know what I should give it to eat when/if it wakes up?

Hello Louise,
I think you should do a calendar of the residents of Carmine. It doesn't have to be rude just photograph them doing their thing at various times of the year.
