- In fact, I typed this accompanied by much loud Italian conversation.
- My parents were here, and both were shouting instructions over my shoulder.
- They disagreed about the arrangement of the lettuce - my mother said that the hole in the middle of the platter was necessary; my father insisted that it wasn't, saying you can just dump the tuna on top of the lettuce.
- I finally had to give up on this reply until they went home.
- So now, in the peace and quiet of the aftermath, I've finished it.
- Hope you had a wonderful holiday.
