Pigeons. F***ing everywhere and they're tame aswell. They go under your seat and fly straight at you. Why do people insist on feeding the rats of the sky they're mouldy and full of disease! And they s*** everywhere… I have also been bitten to shreds through the night, bloody everywhere up my arms on the back of my neck and down my legs. Ouch. I've managed to get four weeks without one and Venice has given me a going back to work treat. After breakfast...

He woke me up in the middle of the night around 12:30am barking and then I had an early ride, not that I slept well at all last night with it being so hot, I took a cold damp towel to bed with me that worked a slightly for a while. Then when I was coming out of my room at 05:30 obviously I knew the dog would stir and start barking - it's what they do. Whoooops I've probably just woke the whole floor up with him barking at me.

Got to Bomerano for just before 8AM, found a water shop in the town and tried to beat the few crowds of people doing t...

First full day in the Almalfi Coast and I'm heading to the ferry port to go to Capri for the day! Not sure what to do there so whilst waiting for the ferry sat where I was yesterday tucking into my breakfast pack of banana and pear juice I found a one day itinerary for the island - perfect! The ferry was jam packed, I managed to get to the top deck but stood up blowing in the wind. We went past the dolphin island owned by the famous Russian ballet dancer Ru...
