Here are links to a couple of stories about Italy that I’ve seen on the BBC News website over the last couple of weeks: Italy’s World Cup party goes on and Sicily’s license-less bus drivers.

If you have an internet browser (like Firefox or Safari) that can read RSS feeds, try using the following to get regular Italy news updates from the BBC: http://newsapi.bbc.co.uk/feeds/search/news/italy - it’s not foolproof but it will occasionally throw up a story you’d otherwise have missed.
