rough and tumble

training in full swing. have definitely got myself a dubious rep as a gracious fouler. and am getting gently reminded to pipe down. i really don't mean to knock people down. apparently my "grinta" will serve us well when we come up against some nasty napoletane in perugia june 28. am loving our trainers. a nonno, the nonna (who holds the balls). the son and the daughter in law. all journalists. a family-run affair. the definite underdogs.
