Also the fact that we sold our apartment yesterday and are now officially homeless might have something to do with it! In ten days we are returning to England, to a borrowed cottage in Sussex for a month while we look for somewhere else to live. Watch this space.
ROMEO & JULIET
Romeo had
persuaded Juliet’s friend to tell him where she lived, and now he was standing
outside her tower block.
He
pressed every buzzer but no-one would let him in – his accent marked him indelibly
as an outsider - so he climbed the fire-escape, knocking on windows.
“Eff off,
white boy,” was the least objectionable response, and he thought he’d never
find her until, in a final throw of the dice, he stood on a landing and sang at
the top of his voice, “Amore Mia!”
Juliet
flung open her window, grinning, “Shut up, you fool!” and dragged him inside.“
