Older Italian man:- Tweedy jackets, Barbour jacktets, cravattes, Squire (tips forelock)
crass generalisations but true in many cases

But I should clarify the phenomenon of the SQUIRE. In the 80s, if you were into the Pet Shop Boys, they'd have been PANINARI (whoa-oa-oa). The Squire is a football fan who kits out in Home Counties Barbour-wear; tartans also feature. Just imagine someone who was basing their idea of 'preppy' from Sloanes and then going to Ye Olde Traditional Clothyers for the clothes, but is tooled up to kill at the matches. Last year in Italy every time we saw one, we'd tug our forelocks and go 'arrrr, Squire!' in bad West Country accents.
I once heard that the European standard size of condom was too large for the Italian market. Having found a tranche of Italian condoms recently, I fear there may be something to this tale.

"marshallow?" hahahahahah suzy that's so original. i heard that a hundred times a day for 12 fucking years at school. you pretend to offer advice (which just reads like bad gale desoconnor or whatever her name was) but you couldn't resist adding that little snide aside, could you? you couldn't bear bypassing the option of name-calling.
so, no offence, suzy, but i neither want nor need your fake concern. i will only listen to advice from people who BELIEVE what they are telling me.
― Marcello Carlin, Monday, 25 November 2002 10:32 (twenty-three years ago)
Surely 'bad gale' a tautology? Honestly, I don't know when I've met someone who's felt sorrier for themselves than you, or more keen to spread it around by blaming or insulting others who bear you no malice. Can you not find a more constructive way of bleating 'notiiiiiiiice meeeeee'?

yr second paragraph - is that the best you could do? bring on the reliable old false frame of a troupe, blah blah sorry for yrself, blah blah blame & insult others although apparently it's ok for others to blame & insult me or things/people i care about because let's face it carlin you're not one of us you are an OUTSIDER this is a PRIVATE CLUB so FUCK OFF and stop spoiling our (illusion of) fun.
y'know? just admit it and i'd have more respect for you.
