This morning's opening scene
- A sunrise over a salt marsh.
The opening theme
- A song quickly thrown together by some swifts.

On an island, a short ferry ride from Venice,
People come to look at glass and peep through lace,
Which is the inverse to what they do elsewhere and where the most beautiful women in the world come to buy gowns.

I am out of my league but am tempted...
To use words like 'haughty' and 'pert'.Β Β The cloth fits.

Mallow grows here - a reminder of home and of a place where the women are easier - but at the same time...

more complicated.
