The Tuscan after a Crash Diet and a visit to the Barber

The Hitch is almost certainly beyond help, but the relatively modest forestation suffered by the Tuscan snake-oil salesman has been attended to.


His recent abstinence from all solids and liquids of unhealthy nature has clearly paid dividends as well.

This is Tony, snapped by a passer-by in Lucca. Benvolio, the barber and part-time goat-shearer, has just finished his handiwork; the Tuscan clearly approves, but has got his tackle caught in the machinery that makes the barbers' chair go up and down.

Sadly the passer-by was unable to record how this bio-mechanical conundrum was solved. Lubricant and that piccy of Cherie on the beach probably did the trick.

If this really were tuscan tony, the mermaid might have to take a trip to the med... the less hairy the swimmer, the more aquadynamic. Sure there could be some interesting aquatic moments with the Tony...

I'd be pretty damn' careful Mr Idle, being that I am breaking bread and wiune this evening with your nearest neighbour and someone who knows you personally, he says he has a fund of stories and not much money wuld need to change hands for them to be retold (and immediately posted obver at my place.

Savvy? Plus, my silence can only be properly bought with a very expensive trip to The Three Moles, as you well know.

Ah. I see.

Don't believe a word, unless uttered by that very nice wife of his.

Tell him the weather is beaut here and his gaff has been burned to a cinder by a heath fire.

Actually that can't be Tony - not enough sunlight in that mirror.
