Italian minister resigns over corruption.....

......shock! Whilst their British counterparts have increasingly been caught with their fat fingers in the sweetie jar of late, Italian politicos have been scooping-out handfuls of goodies with impunity for years. For Italian Finance Minister Claudio Scajola to have been impeached for corruption, he must have been ridiculously 'at it'. Remember to check what your outgoing MP was up to last term before re-electing them; did they have to spend time on the naughty step for stealing sweeties?

Elsewhere, work was challenging but rewarding and I received some nice (and unexpected) feedback from a particularly difficult colleague.

LLCoolJim was semi-pleased with his portrait yesterday; apparently his youthful papules, pustules and comedones are too obvious and need an airbrush.....
