    Readers will be interested in the Author AUTOBIOGRAPHY for several reasons. Qualified people of his time and from Florence (Italy) , when Italy was booming , they would never have gone to London and have a career against all the odds. This first move later created opportunities for a very adventurous life , some episodes feel unreal but they did happen. It is interesting to see that life can reserve pleasant surprises even late in life. As an example of never surrender this should inspire the readers.

      My Four Lives

      Since 16/03/2020 I have been inside my flat due to the Coronavirus regulations here in Malta.

      After two weeks I have decided to go back to my life events and write them down, first to pass the time and second just in case I will start forgetting all that has gone on.

      I was born in Florence (Italy) on the 13th of September 1935 in a flat that did not have much light as my Parents were starting their life together on a small budget.

      My Mother always told me that I was born at Midday, the wrong way round and my Father was going crazy seeing that I was a boy and he was afraid that I will not live.

      I always thought that it was very advanced of my Father to be witnessing my birth considering that it was 1935 and men were not supposed to witness the birth of their children.

      Eighteen months later my Sister was born and to this date we are very close, I speak to her every week

      From Malta, she lives in London.

      We moved to a Flat, in the Centre of Florence, on the top floor near the San Lorenzo Cathedral, that had a lot of light but was very hot in the summer and very cold in the winter, but we were a very Happy Family.

      A problem that I remember well was that my Father suffered from T.B. (Tuberculosis). In those days there were not Antibiotics, hence there was not a proper cure.

      Sometimes my Father used to take us children out for a walk, but occasionally we had to come back quickly as he was not feeling well.

      Especially in the winter our flat was cold for him and we had lots of steep stairs, so he used to stay at my Grandfather Emilio’s place, which was centrally heated and had a lift, it was in Via Calimala 2 in the best part of Florence.

      It was also my Grandfather Emilio Accountancy Office. He was a well known and respected Public Accountant in Florence.

      My Sister and I went to the kindergarten run by the Nuns, I remember coming back home with girls pants as I had soiled mine! To this day I remember the funny feeling.

      My Primary school was just round the corner and was called Davanzati.

      My first teacher’s name was Miss Schiatti, I remember her with affection, she was very dedicated and fair.

      We used to hang around outside the school as our Parents did not worry, they knew that we were enjoying our friends.

      Now I remember that I like to box with my friends, as some of the Parents complained to me.

      Later when I was 14 years old I went for boxing at the SEMPRE AVANTI JUVENTUS
