Having posted on the blog the news that work had started on the nieghbouring house and that the owners were the Roscoes we were delighted to get a email from Pamela and John Roscoe confirming their existence and the news that they are not English but Scottish. This is good news as currently if someone wants to know were we live they can ask for “gli inglesi” and having “gli inglesi uno” and “gli inglesi due” wouldn’t be very nice. Having “gli inglesi” and “i scozzesi” will be much better. Much less confusing.
Memi, their neighbour who also makes the best pasta in San Giorgio if not in Italy, was delighted with the news particularly when we told her that they can speak Italian.
