Guido's older brother Pietro has arrived in Northern Cyprus to open the first real Italian pizzeria in the Northern part of the island! It must be the start of a whole chain of pizzeria's in TRNC following the success in Italy, where Pietro owns more than 16.000 pizzeria's. Pietro Spina has chosen a shop next to Guido's Bistro to build up his TRNC empire. Good luck, Pietro!

Hans, do you mean he has 16,000 or 16?

Again, Bill, we write 16.000 (sixteen thousand) on the European continent. The way a couple of Brits keep writing figures and driving on the wrong side of a road is absolutely obsolete...

You suggested - I know you - that he had only 16 pizzeria's in Italy. Ha! That's five years ago. It's now 16.000 (sixteen thousand)! Pure jealousy. I didn't expect that from you, Bill.

It's such a pity that I don't eat pizza. So will be heading to the little brother's restaurant.

Anyway,



BUONA FORTUNA E SUCCESSO, PIETRO!

How does that make me jealous?

I don't think it's jealousy, 16000 pizzerias is just a rather massive number for anyone to own. I certainly wondered if it was a typo. I look forward to trying out the new pizzeria. We've needed more good pizza restaurants around.
