Hotel OK, Rome.
A morning beginning at Chateau Minx, Chiswick. Taxi call at 09.45 to Terminal Two, Heathrow, where I met John; and (eventually) on Alitalia to Rome. Late boarding, late leaving, late arriving. Alitalia - is this an Italian airline?
Heroes Allesandro & Roberto met us at the airport, Hernan & The League Of Crafty Guitarists waiting in the van due to our late arrival. The convoy went first to The LCG’s apartments (near the rehearsal rooms & Wednesday’s presentation venue), then to John & Robert’s hotel (near Tuesday’s venue).

Shortly after our hotel arrival: a meeting with our main Italian promoter to discuss unresolved & undecided issues, such as photography & interviews, notwithstanding extensive e-correspondence on both these already. For me, these are subjects already resolved + decided. Our promoter, however, has difficulty with the word No when it comes to anything that might be construed as promotion.
Dribbling already before being hustled, now back in the hotel room with a failed attempt to access the strong wifi signal in the room. After an hour, with Al & Roberto both translating the instructions, the attempt to get online is now abandoned.
