“Best of” OnlineItalianClub.com

I’ve been publishing articles at OnlineItalianClub.com for a number of years now.

Most of them are of the ‘here’s a link to today’s new exercise’ type. Instantly forgettable. But there are a few that might be worth another look…

Often I was trying to sell something, so the articles contain links that will be long dead, to special offers lost in the mists of time.

Nevertheless, I hope you’ll find something to interest you.
