Ogni Santi
... to town for buisness, they added a side door to the dome in which the bishop could enter, because his villa was not in the direction of the official doors.

On top of the mountains my friend Finn and his mistress addressed us in Ladin, signs to a mountain lake (whose immaculate reflections dogs were not allowed to jump in to and sully) were ...
Otzi the Iceman
... a recently missing climber. Each person brought on board revised the date of death back a few centuries, until it was confirmed that Otzi died around 5300 yrs ago. There was a tussle between countries, until Italy claimed Otzi by proving that he was found 96m inside their border, a precise figure.
