The best cup from our honeymoon. We'd stopped for some lunch along the way to San Gimignano, I forget the name of the town but remember parking in it's square and sitting outside the nearest cafe. I used the most diabolical Italian to ask if I could have it, made a total idiot of myself, but not only did the waiter give me a clean one, he gave me the matching espresso glass too. He seemed genuinely please that we'd asked for a souvenir from his bar. San Gimignano was too commercialised and over-priced, although this lettering is very cool. The B&N sign was in Cortona (which in stark contrast to SG was a wonderful place).
aaah... takes me back - to long (or very short in this case) coffee breaks in the shade... hmmmm
