Indeed, Grays is famous for its unrivalled collection of Renaissance art and the Cathedral is truly unique.

I think that the Internet has finally accepted EB's view of Essex. I tried to search for famous people from Grays and it suggested Russel Brand, Moliere and the Indian prime minister.

What? No EB? Your search engine must be broken.

LT - yes. Fecking expensive humanity.
Florence is magnificent, I spent a week there in 2002 and never tired of it. Make sure you walk up to the Church of Santa Maria Novella - an incredible little edifice and cracking views of the city - and Machiavelli's office in the City Hall is not to be missed, in particular check the map on the wall. The walk to the top of the Duomo is not for the faint hearted, apparently the Italians don't believe in safety rails, but again, the view is cracking. Food and drink? oh yes!

Edit: just remembered the Palazzo de Pitti - some great Renaissance military paintings in there :D
I get lockdown, but I get up again.

No mention of the international playboy and man of mystery who frequents this forum? :?

Thank's LT. I shall bear all this in mind, and not mention it to Debbie just yet.
