Last game of a season quite unlike any other. Quite possibly Juric's last game too if the rumours linking him to Torino are to be believed.

Still plenty to play for tonight - particularly for those vying for Champions League football next season!

Hellas have started very brightly. Best I've seen them in a while.

Hellas could be three up here! Solid performance and pretty potent going forward. A goal is coming.

Rrahmani of course!

Equalizer for Hellas! No less than they deserve!

Gunter back at his commanding best at the back for Hellas and barely even breaking sweat. Must be the blonde hair.

Personally would have preferred to have seen Juve miss out on CL next season but delighted that we ended the season with a decent performance and some promising signs for the future (despite the usual polemics). 💪💪💪

Today I'm going on a pilgrimage. I hope you can join me.

The bar above should have been the first stop of the tour but as you can see, it's closed. If you've read my book you may recognize the name. Look closely at the picture.

Francesco Viviani was a leading figure in the Veronese resistance. He was killed at Buchenwald in April 1945.

Deciding to escape from Verona for the day, our objective was Fontanellato, a small town in north western Italy, approximately 20 kilometres west of Parma.

Fontanellato is home to the Santuario Basilica della Beata Vergine del Santo Rosario, a Dominican sanctuary that commemorates a succession of miracles dating back to 1628. Monastic chanting provides a haunting backdrop to our brief tour of the convent.

The Rocca Sanvitale is a fortress-residence located in the centre of Fontanellato. Its origins can be traced back to the 13th century. Until as recently as the 1930s it was home to the descendants of the first Count of Sanvitale.
