Yes, it is a good idea to keep your purse within view. <br /><br />I took a look at your blog, one I've stumbled across in the past, so I'm very happy to see you here. I too am a huge Johnny Depp fan. Just think, he was almost a fellow Venetian (Veneto) resident...oh well! We'll just have to be happy when he comes to the Film Festival, or makes another movie in town!Italy to Los Angeles and Backhttp://www.italytolosangelesandback.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3843251017084370377.post-49903631154667297382011-07-15T21:53:39.122+02:002011-07-15T21:53:39.122+02:00What a sad thing, to have such a lovely evening in...What a sad thing, to have such a lovely evening in Venice spoiled like that. Shame on those men, and on all pickpockets everywhere.<br /><br />Since having my handbag (purse) lifted from a supermarket trolley some years ago, I now wear mine across my chest and in front of me, even when dining al fresco. If I can't, it is in front of me on the ground with the handle wrapped around one leg. Untrusting?

After this disturbing end to a lovely evening I got to thinking that the portable purse hangers you mentioned--I see them in so many store windows around town, some trimmed with Murano glass--would make great Holiday gifts!

I echo what Alexa has said. We can tend to become complacent in our beloved Venice.

Thanks also for your kind words on my blog—and even if I don't always comment here, I also enjoy all of your posts. Finally—aperol per me, per piacere!Alexahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03620873522996260383noreply@blogger.com
