27th Oct: Come Back to Sorrento!

Yes, beautiful climate, lovely cliff-top views, handsome town etc., but not exactly dragging us back. Did we miss something?

Now this below is much more interesting. Jane’s really taken with it. These small 50cc transports are to be found all over Italy. It’s called an APE 50, steered with motorbike handlebars, and designed for driver only but frequently accommodates two Italians. So, scrap our fancy cars & let’s all have one of these. At a stroke, it’s the energy crisis solved, speeding offences solved, junk transportation problems solved. It’s also the ultimate social leveller. (Metallic paint, turbo, 3 wheel drive versions, all not allowed, but perhaps a covered wagon version to transport the family would be permissible).
