Interuptus maximus
Thoughties, tips and terrestrial tourist traps the art of travelling anywhere with the most amount of
trivial information.
Make sure you know when to take notice of the traveller’s curse that strikes down the unwary on the
search for calorific charisma. Recently Vino Rossi and rich tucker had erupted the gout during a stumble
thru the corridors of cobble stoned villages. This kick started the cursed disease normally associated
with European Kings back in times when the peasants had to get by on bread and a few vegetables.
Imagine the poor buggers only eating meat on feast days, In fact, even to this day gout is referred to as
"the disease of Kings."
Passed through the town of Tourettes, which triggered a few mental markers, whilst erratically
meandering about World cup France. Made me laugh and reminisce about my many attacks over the
years when I was younger as my testosterone level and "Type A" personality was not subdued by the
onslaught of old age. I even cursed a little for old time’s sake and attempted a bit of Pernod induced
frenetic hip hop staggers to check the Touretteograph.
Dropped into Missolonghi in Greece and discovered that Lord Byron died there in 1824 at the age of 36,
always was fascinated in his exploits and conquests, especially of the 200 or so women he is said to
have seduced. So had a mission to find the tree under which Byron's heart had been buried after his
body had been embalmed and shipped back to England. His body burial was refused by Westminster
Abbey because of his reputation for drinking from a skull, or was that just sculling and they got it
wrong, or his licentiousness and depravity, which of course made him all the more interesting.
Dribbling Politically:
While on all things Italian and not wishing to enter the paying of licentious ladies to be at parties,
perhaps a quote from the master of manipulation the man who bought his own Prime Ministership is
pertinent.
The inimitable Berlusconi or burlesque-coni was quoted in times of political expediency in his book Una
Storica Italiana as saying
“se non e vero e ben trovato “ …. “If it’s not true it is well said
Here in lies the crux of making sure that the story is so good the lie is worth believing.
Melting Italian moments:
Ever felt like a pisolino or suffering the sextus ……well Italy is the place for you. The explanation of the
legendary “pisolino” or leisurely lunch closes all doors at 1.00 for lunchies, followed by a nap until 4
then work cranks up until 7.00 which does need some amplification for non Italians.
The explanation steeped in history is a circadian brain rhythm structure as the body clock slows down at
2.00 and revs up again at 4.00.
The Romans took a break on the sextus or 6th hour of sunshine then rested in doors due to the danger
from lurking ghosts. Hence the siesta, or riposo as it is known, came into use and Oz would do well to
spot a few grey ghosts of its own to help the workers.
Gran Eustachio Roma:
Close to the Pantheon in Rome is the “ultimate coffee experience’’ according to Web forums and
diletantic trip advisor guides. The Gran Eustachio at Piazza Eustachio has accolades aplenty according to
a majority of European or American reviewers so this needed investigation. The advice is to go both as a
lifestyle and culinary experience for the supremo Roman Coffee. Is this the King of coffee coiffure, (no
not coffee with hair around it) or should some legends be best left on the internet?
In real life it is another over touristed, buy a ticket, get into the queue, wait and get a coffee
experience. This aficionado’s coffee was a sugar infused, fairy floss, cremer bomb served with ultimate
disdain by a practising member of the aragoncenti. Here omnipotence is enacted as an “espresso
religion” interrupted only by the clientele intruding upon the site of savoury sainthood.
We do get a good coffee in Melbourne and Sydney, perhaps a little less loved, but certainly with the
unaffected taste of correctly roasted beans, pleasantly presented whilst seated and served.
Walkabout on a Pedestrian Diet:
I think we can do a quick breakdown on Patty Limerick's pedestrian diet and exercise plan and fit it into
fat Land Australia for the calorie stressed.
Part One: Walk and stroll as much as you can.
Part Two: The good bit… Eat all the time.
Impulsive eating counts here ………so go for it!
Eat everything you can find in the way of mango, plums, apricots, pineapple, oranges, grapefruit,
strawberries, blueberries, grapes, apples, bananas, watermelon, rock melon, peaches, nectarines, and
any other tasty fruitos.
Prep every day or two by cutting the fruit up and dump in the fridge for instant attack so that not a
second will pass between feeling hungry–and eating! There is no forbidden fruit in the Limerick
Pedestrian Diet.
The fruit will knock your taste buds for a loop as you settle into endorphin heaven. Go for vegetables…..
asparagus, broccoli, or try zucchini with feta cheese which can taste like a gourmet meal. Try well-
stocked Salads with cucumbers, celery, capsicum, carrots, mushrooms, lettuce/ Rocket. Indulge in any
supplements like olives, avocado, artichoke hearts, anchovies, smoked salmon, slices of roast turkey or
beef.
No gun at your head to be a vegetarian although it is always an interesting fact to contemplate, that it
takes seven pounds of grain to produce one pound of meat.
Perhaps most important, do not hold back on the salad dressing. Dump it on. Do not ask for the
dressing to be brought on the side, and dribble a drop or two on an otherwise graceless salad…. put
truckloads on.
You have made the fundamental commitment to eating a plate filled with rabbit tucker so you are
lunching on a big bowl of water with a little fibre thrown in, and no one (not even you) has the right to
punish you by withholding the salad dressing.
After a period get ready to audition for Snow White as one of the Dwarfs or walk to Lilliput land as fat
City has passed you by.
Don’t believe me ….. go Google the diet up..
