Very interesting, from both you Rolly and Ou Toppie, thank you Wink

Now, here in Nova Scotia, we have an area here called the 'south shore' which has a long history of German influence, with many towns and cities named as such...where I grew up in Toronto, there was an area with a very large contingent of Italians, which is known as 'Little Italy', there's a very big percentage of the population that are Italian or of Italian descent, so let's just say when they won the world cup, it was a craaaaaaaaaazy party!

For those who do not understand: lupara is a short hunting rifle traditionally  Cry used by mafia..
To be precise and for your culture  Grin : organized criminality has different definitions depending on region.. you probably know only mafia but there are also camorra, 'ndrangheta, sacra corona unita ....

However I am jokeing here but, even fully understanding the bad reputation that italians have around the world, I do not believe in stereotypes

An example? (replying to Johan about the other topic  Wink) . I have got blue eyes, blonde hair, I am 6 feet tall, I do not like tarantella, I do not play mandolino, I do not like soccer, but ..... still I am italian and I am not the only one like that.  Grin
