Thanks PDM...i believe the saying "open mouth...insert foot" probably began with me smile . Took me a couple of months to get over that situation but now its so funny to me, and my husband who cant believe i was so bold then!

Featheryglow: i hope everything works out for you, i'm glad you had someone there in Italy to have as a friend (and a friend who sends happy shivers down your spine in such a romantic place isnt too bad smile ). Let us know if you hear anything!
