Some nice ones there Nathan. Lightning and man on bench reading were the 
stand outs. And speaking of Perpignan, it looks to be a must do next year. 
In fact, in front of me is the programme for it.

I had forgotten that I had been talking to acquaintances who have an 
apartment there and had mentioned my interest in going to the festival 
sometime. Met them last night at our local cinema club, and they handed me 
the programme in the pub later.

I must mention the cinema club: the film Il Divo was on & was well worth 
going to see. While I thought I was up to speed on politics across the 
world, the murky twisted coils of Andreotti's Italian political pasta, 
doused in a sauce of gore and corruption, left me struggling to grasp the 
full import of everything in the film. I regretted not boning up on 
Andreotti beforehand, even on Wikipedia...

That said the acting, imagery, and dialogue that had me in stitches betimes, 
has sent me off looking for a suitable book on post war Italy.
