A lot of action, in this corner of the square! Under the colonnade a small factory is making the panels required to support the roofs. (Well – there isn’t actually a real reason to insulate them with rigid Polyurethane foam, since the place will be open to the four winds, but… who knows what will happen in the future? They might make out of the colonnade many mini-apartments for a Conclave – that is where and when Cardinals elect a new Pope – and it’s better to be prepared!) Nearby, two men – Bavarian spies? – carefully study a foaming press for refrigerators, a “must” in this city in hot love with food. Two nice dogs are bathing in the monumental fountain – aren’t they a familiar view? Below, a true technological innovation: all these pilgrims need mattresses to rest, but there is no space here for a large manufacturing site. Therefore these Italians – power to fantasy! as usual – mould large blocks of flexible foam in a very compact rotary machine and slice them into mattresses with an ingenious cutting-transporting hand-driven machine. (Well, in all truth, they have copied the moulding idea from their colleagues making refrigerators, but you always find a way to reach an agreement in this country!). All right, folks, it’s almost all for this year! Have a nice one… who knows where we will be in the next!
