I love this kind of stuff. I am in awe of those skilled men who did this work so long ago...and I often wonder what modern stuff will be left in a few centuries, and will the population of the time, think as I do now??

Any plans to revisit Sue? And can you get me in your suitcase?

As to Venice it's one of those places that people either love or hate -no middle ground as far as I can tell from what different people have told me.
Thank you both, glad you liked them, they turned out better than I expected and no I haven't played about with them any more.

No plans to go back Margaret, we very rarely revisit places, there are too many new ones to see... Though I do have a suitcase just about big enough for a body but that only goes on cruises with me. Or you could sit in the shower in our camper van...

Di we went to Venice in March when there was still snow on the ground at the Lido. Not sure I would have been so enamoured in the height of summer but maybe the buildings and atmosphere might even conquer the effect of hordes of tourists. You could almost do a day trip from Garda, just to dip your toe in the water, so to speak...
