Well, the last months has happened alot. Been struggling with my residence and finally sorted it out. In Catania the women in the comune didn’t understand that I have an income, so I had to call some muscles to help out and now all ok.
Been to Rome to renew my passport, costs about 200 euro to get a swedish passport by the embassy plus travel costs, but now one worry is of my mind. The passport is my most important document and it has to work. A bank lady here broke it…
The airport in Catania has been closed and still is even if the work to improve the pist was supposed to finish two days ago. So all flights goes by Sigonella, the military airport just a stone-throw-away from Catania. This is quite a good example how Sicily works; the media wrote to open Comiso airport, a brand new airport built but not in use as a minister in Rome refuses to sign the last ok. But, population knew that Sigonella is to be the support airport while Catania is closed and that’s the way it went. So read media and?expect the opposite.
So some weeks after Sigonella was in use, the minister signed a ok for Comiso airport to open in 150 days, so let’s see…
The ex-mayor of Ragusa, Nello di Pasquale, refuse to?be called by?his new?title “Onorevole” as he is in the sicilian government now and wrote on his official Facebook page that he is Nello per tutti! = Nello for everybody!
Sicily has a new president Rosario Crocetta. He seems to have more balls than Lombardo as Rosario in one of his first debates on RAI made it clear that companies with registered office in Milano, but pollution Sicily with their production located here, shall pay taxes in Sicily and not in Milano!
Lombardo, Sicily’s ex-president, showed up some time ago with a blue eye saying that he fell in his country house, but actually he got beaten up by angry catanesi not far from where I live today.
WindJet seems to sell tickets even if it is officially down. Maybe they got economical back up. Gotta check it up!
Some pics from a rainy Rome
Varit i Rom f?r att f?rnya mitt pass, kostar cirka ? 200 att f? svenskt pass av ambassaden samt resekostnader, men nu ?r en oro?ur mitt sinne. Passet ?r mitt viktigaste dokument och det m?ste fungera. En bank dam tog s?nder den…
Flygplatsen i Catania har st?ngts och ?r ?nnnu fast arbetet med att f?rb?ttra pisten skulle avslutas tv? dagar sedan. S? alla flygningar g?r via Sigonella, den milit?ra flygplatsen bara ett sten–kast-bort fr?n Catania. Detta ?r en ganska bra exempel p? hur Sicilien fungerar, media skrev att de skulle ?ppna Comiso flygplats, en helt nybyggd flygplats, men som inte anv?nds eftersom en minister i Rom v?grar att underteckna sista ok. Men befolkningen visste att?Sigonella?blir st?d flygplatsen medan Catania ?r st?ngd och s? blev det. S? l?s media och f?rv?nta dig motsatsen.
