The itinery for Italy looks like:
Vicenza
Ferrara
Bologna
Moderna
Reggio Emillia
Palma
Genoa
Which seems to me to be a delightful two/three week prospect.
Finding a furnished appartment in Sleaford seems to be almost impossible - we'll have to rent and buy a few sticks to fill the place ... or ... it'll be Sheffield again - and the buses are free to old folk like me! That means we'll have weekend trips to Prague, Vienna and Amsterdam plus Delf - well it's only filthy lucre ...
Plus, the reason for being in England's green and pleasant, loads of outing to the Peaks and sundry cathedrals, churches, galleries, archaeological sites and such. All this and more. Don't forget there's the visits to Japan each way from Sydney to London.
I still need a project though ...
