Ozzy's Diary - Esempio di newsletter JUNIOR

Esempio di newsletter FACILE

ESEMPIO 1

SPRING
It’s almost spring! At last! Everybody is fed up of winter. Fed up of the cold. Fed up of the short days. Fed up of having colds and having the flu. Soon it will be spring. Now the days are getting longer and longer. It’s nice when the days are longer. It’s nice when the temperature is a bit higher. It’s nice when people are a bit happier.

MUSIC
There was a nice song on the radio this morning. It’s a song by a guy called Mario Biondi with a group called ‘Neri Per Caso’. A strange combination. I don’t know the name of the song but I know that it’s a cover. It was sung by someone called Micheal McDonald (I think) many, many years ago. Anyway it’s a beautiful song. Mario Biondi has a voice like Barry White’s and ‘Neri Per Caso’ are perfect on this record, too.

SAN REMO
Apparently poor Loredana Bertè copied somebody’s song so she is out of San Remo! A scandal! There is always a scandal of some sort at San Remo. I suppose it’s good for publicity too. We spoke to Paris Hilton and Britney Spears about the situation this morning. They said that this was a fantastic way of getting free publicity. They should know. They are the experts.

SPORT
Inter drew with Roma in the big match last night.

ESEMPIO 2

ELISABETTA CANALIS
Elisabetta Canalis is fed up of choosing the wrong man! From now on, she is going to be more selective. Much more selective. She is going to find a man who isn’t complicated, who is well-balanced, who doesn’t make her suffer, who isn’t a football player, and who is willing to share her bed with her and Piero (her little dog). We asked Elisabetta how she chose the name Piero. Elisabetta said that is was a nice name for a dog.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY
Today is the birthday of Lucio Dalla, Umberto Tozzi and Ron Moss (Ridge from Beautiful). We wish them all happy birthday! Lucio has written many wonderful songs (for instance “Caruso”, “Futura” and “Anna E Marco”). Umberto has written many beautiful songs such as “Notte Rosa” and the unforgettable “Gloria”. Ron Moss hasn’t written any songs but many women love him all the same. Ron Moss is Ridge from “Beautiful”.
