@dougjohnstone.bsky.socialWatched Napoli FC cruise to a 3-0 win over Frosinone, McTominay and Gilmour on from the bench. Great atmosphere, and chaotic travel to and from the stadium in yet more downpours.
@dougjohnstone.bsky.socialMore Naples madness. Started the day with torrential rain, ended with a beautiful sunset.
@dougjohnstone.bsky.socialNaples absolute chaos so far - apocalyptic lightning storms, crazy streets, big churches and underground caverns. And pizza.
@dougjohnstone.bsky.socialThank you!

@dougjohnstone.bsky.socialI’m an author, apparently. Taken by the super talented Paul Reich at @bloodyscotland.bsky.social.
@dougjohnstone.bsky.socialI've been playing a lot of my music at book events recently, so I thought it was worth reminding you that you can stream or download everything from my Bandcamp site. What's more, Bandcamp regularly waive their commission on Fridays, including today!
