Ah, those Italians. I was married to one of them. My daughter's middle name is Italia. Good little story on life with a gondolier. Favorite lines:
"Italia now, I'd rather play bridge with you," he sighed, "but it's high tide I went home to clean the venetian blinds, oar my wife'll divorce me." Marilyn

The play on words is delightful and I can never get enough of it. I have a few more to review and I am looking forward to seeing the new professions and their shenanigans.

Well done - is Venus in Italy? I didn't know that - but certainly "those tourist girls" - the dreams they nurse. Still this gondolier had a good moral view of marriage.

Thanks for another great installment so that we canal get our morning fix of laughter - "Venezia" and "Italia" are to die for.

Also- congrats - I see that you are the #1 ranked author at present - a fitting tribute to these great pieces.

I thought gondolier was an STD until I read this!

I particularly liked the oblique reference to that most famous bridge -- the Bidge of Sighs -- that is slipped cunningly in here amongst the giggles. This was as usual great fun, almost oarsome in fact.
