Day 295: I Am Bitten On The Eyelid By A Milanese Mosquito

Is this possible? I think it is, for the little fucker has also bitten me on the right butt-ock and arm! And all this after taking a tilting train through the night surrounded by fainting Swiss!

But all this must wait for another day, for in three hours I offer suggestions on how to sell sweet biscuits to the Southern Italians, and this requires a badly assembled flipchart containing ill-executed drawings of giant bakery products on legs, and my semi-concentration.

Same thing happened to me once - I was nine years old, woke up in the middle of the night and couldn't open my eye. Hysterics ensued.

Milanese is cream and ham, right?

For the southern italians, then ? Just have the biscuits sold in easy to steal packages, they'll be all the rage.

Sorry about the moustique, even more sorry about the bad flipchart, someone should have known better, such a bummer.
By the way (and this will certainly be of no interest to anyone not in a francophone country), when you post a comment from here in France it's automatically headed, eg 'jonnyboy a dit', and all instuctions in French, eg 'Enregistrer un commentaire...'. God help me when I access the blog in Poland.
Same in The Canada jb?

Anyway we know you have a natural talent for flipcharts. You'll be a smash hit, just don't fall on the biscuits.

Seriously. I'm getting a little worried about how accident-prone you are in Holland... be careful!

Yep monkeypapa, I believe it depends on your browser's and/or blogger's language preferences. The software knows best, bow to the software, bow to the software NOW !
Thankfully it doesn't translate my name into petitjeangarcon.

As we say in Scotchland -

Good night
Sleep tight
Don't let the buggies bite.
And if they bite
Squeeze them tight
And they'll no' bite another night!

Don't scratch your bum in the presentation. Do you need flipcharts to sell selling biscuits to S Italians, don't you just make them an offer they can't refuse? Like "buy two and and go free"

HOT NEWS! It whatever it was dealt with with spash of scent (Jo Malone 154 Cologne) carefully applied (eyelid) and some 8 hour cream. By 8am the puffiness was nearly gone completely. Result!

On another note, we will soon be making giant packets of biscuits on legs, and my job has suddenly become very amusing again.

On yet another note, I also have a mosquito bite on my other butt-ock.

Also I am sleep-deprived.

Mr F, thank you for your kind poem.

J-Boy, MP - my software translates "Monkeypappa" into "Pappacunty" and "Johnnyboy" into something unpronouncable involving lodges (???).

Otherwise, we have 'zei' in the Holland.
