My sisters, Athena and Dee (Aphrodite), weren't able to come to Italy, but we had several relatives visit. My aunt Anne and my maternal grandmother Ruth visited and we went to Venice. Phillip, my eldest brother, visited for a while, and went to Greece with my Mum. Then my paternal uncle and aunt, Stephen and Ruth, and my cousins David and Clare visited and we took them on a tour of Italy.


- There's two particular dramatic events of note: at the ski lodge over Christmas, I was losing really badly at Monopoly, so I got given a few squares and proceeded to win. The second is my aunt Ruth spanking me in public in Venice. Mum was incensed, and I swear that's why my Barcarolle came out so dark.


These are Phillip's photos and notes. Everyone gets a voice-over! -
