This is truly bizarre, because on the right of the story, the second story down is about my sister abseiling in Colchester Town Centre.... (she's the chief reporter for the Gazette)
I wonder if she travelled to Italy at all? I imagine she did. What a lovely story.
D
Lol, Pete. I'm not sure I liked the way it said she would be "hitting the high street."
