Back from a week in Menaggio, on Lake Como, where my Mum and I had a relaxing break.

Didn't do a great deal - sat on steamers as they went up and down the lake, ate gelati, drank wine and bought shoes.

Isn't Italy great?

(picture shows Varenna, just across the lake from Menaggio)

Just in case you thought I sat and twiddled my thumbs, here's the evidence that the sock progressed. Actually both socks progressed.

To keep body and soul together, a small plate of yummy salamis etc was enough for lunch.
