] Date Posted: 15:46:44 12/15/04 Wed In reply to: Herr Schweiz 's message, "In defence of Geneva..." on 13:13:59 12/15/04 Wed I wasn't being entirely serious, you know...say, 50%! And Geneva is all right to visit, but one wouldn't want to live there. Notwithstandling its extra-E.U. status, I rather think that there are more fascinating cities... grime is evidence of a bit of life. A lot of Swiss towns remind me of wards in an expensive private hospital. And yes, Rome, Milan, Naples and Turin are all very jolly. Now there are cities which are lived in, and you can tell from the chaos and the mess! Venice, on the other hand, is rather like the Swiss cities: beautiful, international, but about half the size of Highgate Cemetry and twice as dead. If I had to live anywhere in Italy, though, it would certainly be Milan. But does this make Italy the best country in the world? I doubt it, since I doubt that any country can seriously claim that accolade. [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] |
