I first saw him on a Wednesday, in October I think it was … or perhaps it was November. However, it was definitely a Wednesday, because it was market day in Pontremoli, and I was sitting atop my box in Piazza Italia wondering if today would be my lucky day.<\/span><\/p>\n

Story by Geoff with Italian translation by Serena<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Sleeping in a cardboard box at night, sitting out in the cold on my market stall all day long, and being stared at and judged by passers was getting tedious. All I needed was for the right person to come along, someone able to recognize my value.<\/p>\n

Dormire in una scatola di cartone di notte, star seduto tutto il giorno fuori all’aperto sul mio banco del mercato, ed essere fissato e giudicato dai passanti stava diventando noioso. Tutto ci\u00f2 di cui avevo bisogno era che si presentasse la persona giusta, qualcuno in grado di riconoscere il mio valore.<\/em><\/p>\n

And eventually he did, one windy Wednesday in October … or was it November … well, never mind … I’d been spotted, examined, judged fit for the purpose. And now it was time for my real life to begin, time to do that for which I’d been created.<\/p>\n

E alla fine lui arriv\u00f2, in un ventoso mercoled\u00ec d’ottobre … o era novembre … beh, non importa … ero stato notato, esaminato, giudicato adatto allo scopo. E ora era il momento che cominciasse la mia vera vita, il momento di fare quello per cui ero stato creato.<\/em><\/p>\n

But forgive me, I haven’t introduced myself yet, and you’re probably wondering who or what I am, aren’t you?<\/p>\n

Ma perdonatemi, non mi sono ancora presentato, e voi vi starete probabilmente chiedendo chi o cosa io sia, non \u00e8 vero?<\/em><\/p>\n

My name is Forty Six Right, but you can call me 46R, if it’s easier. I’m strong and practical, but also rather good looking and elegant, if I do say so myself. I should also tell you that I have a brother, almost a twin in fact, well perhaps more like a mirror image of myself you could say. He’s called 46L, and we’re inseparable, we go everywhere together, and to be honest, we’re quite useless the one without the other.<\/p>\n

Mi chiamo Quarantasei Destro, ma voi potete chiamarmi 46D, se \u00e8 pi\u00f9 facile. Sono forte e pratico, ma anche piuttosto piacente ed elegante, modestia a parte. Dovrei anche aggiungere che ho un fratello, anzi quasi un gemello, beh, magari pi\u00f9 un’immagine speculare di me stesso si potrebbe dire. Si chiama 46S e siamo inseparabili, andiamo dappertutto insieme, e ad essere sinceri, siamo piuttosto inutili l’uno senza l’altro.<\/em><\/p>\n

Yes, I’m a boot. And now that I’ve found my owner I’m ready to fulfil my destiny. What lies in store for us, my brother and I? Where will our owner take us … and where will we take him?<\/p>\n

S\u00ec, sono uno scarpone. Ed ora che ho trovato il mio proprietario sono pronto a realizzare il mio destino. Cosa c’\u00e8 in serbo per noi, mio fratello ed io? Dove ci porter\u00e0 il nostro proprietario … e dove lo porteremo noi?<\/em><\/p>\n
