Those boys racing tonight are quite lucky with the weather. Supposedly it is going to be stormy tomorrow. I guess that means it is time for me to put away my summer sandals and dust off my leather boots. Then again, maybe I will just go out and get a new pair...or three. Shopping is so much fun and I haven't been to Italy in a while. But if it is going to be raining all weekend I may stay in and get a jump on some school work. Or I could go somewhere else to shop. I wonder what the weather in Paris is like this coming weekend.
Also, does anyone find it strange that the paper has not reported anything further about what happened a few weeks ago?
[Private to Alec]I do hope you will be careful tonight. I still don't know how you can remain so calm around those animals.
I wanted to give you something before you ride. I thought you might like to wear your bracelet (the one I won at the Casino Royale) for luck. It certainly has been good to me recently, but I'm willing to loan it back even though I don't really think you'll need any extra luck. But it will help keep you safe.
Also, is your friend Dylan alright? I heard about the trouble he encountered. It sounds like he has gotten himself mixed up with a bad crowd, but I'm sure with friends like you he will feel better soon.
I will try to catch you at dinner, but if not, I will see you tonight.
