Funny Villa-related images
« on: August 11, 2013, 02:36:48 PM »
Hi mates, with the last competitive game played last May, we desperately need to re-start the season, don't we?
As a foretaste, why not to gather some funny (sometimes even bizarre) Villa-related images?

I have got a huge amount of these (many taken in occasion of the visits in Italy of the Villa delegation for the Latin Lions annual meetings), so I can start and wait for your contributes.

Ian Taylor and the Villa delegation behind the bar of my local pub, in Italy.




Tayls tasting grappa (a local pride), in a Venetian "baccaro" (bar).




Peter Withe surrounded by a group of adoring American girls in Piazza Santa Maria Novella, in Florence.




The celebration for the baptism of one of our mates'son in a restaurant called Villa (as you surely know, Villa is a Latin - now Italian - word, that means big, elegant country house).






Peter Withe with his lucky-charme number nine in the Fiorentina  dressing  room one hour before the kick off of Fiorentina Milan, for the Italian Serie A.
Casting out nines, as we say in Italy. . .



(to be continued)

Just tried to find the thread with all the pics that expressed how we felt about the Villa. No luck, I'm afraid.

I'm crying with laughter, but I think it's the drugs.

Pretty much where that photo is taken from, there used to be an irish bar which we'd go to every night when we did our university placement in Florence in the summer of 1992.

There are probably only a handful of places I've spent more time in intoxicated than that spot there.

I tried nitrous oxide when the missus was in labour. It didn't even make me smile.

Brilliant pauliewalnuts, the photo is taken just from the pub that you mean, The Finnegan!
Obviously, as soon as Peter saw it, he took a table and said that he didn't want to be disturbed for at least one hour. We could not have any objection, he scored the winner in the EC final, after all. . .

If we're looking for funny pictures, I think Archie's hat takes some beating!
