You can tell it's been a while since a competition I have been watching LIVE has had other members watching too. I have been refreshing the page a few times, without realising that there was now a second page. 
Yes, I really liked her!
I was surprised to find that she only turned 16 in February. I would have put her nearer the cut-off.

Francesca. Really good skate and I love her dress. And she has a Donald Duck tissue box. Now I really like her.
I absolutely loved that programme. Arabic music doesn't get used often enough in figure skating.
Not too sure about the dress, though.
But, I loved the skating. I was surprised she didn't take the lead, but at least she's in second.
Funny that Donald Duck should make an appearance, because when wishing one of my "kids" a happy birthday last week, I accompanied it with this picture:
She was 22. So, "two little ducks"!

Donald Duck is my favorite.
I have to admit, he was mine too when I was a youngster.
But, now that I am older, I am concerned. Because my favourite character in Sesame Street was Oscar The Grouch.
Both are bad tempered; crabbit; frequently flying off the handle...
I hope I was not seeing them as a reflection of myself!

It was a good skate, but on the whole I preferred Flaminia. So, I would have put them the other way around.
There's not much between their scores!

You can say that again! When she came out, I was wondering "why on Earth is there an "@" symbol on her dress?!"
Then the music started, and it made sense. Boys but it was weird at the start. It sounded like we were connecting to dial-up internet!
Thankfully, after this the music was good.
And it was only when she was bowing at the end that I noticed the "belt" wasn't a belt, but was a hash sign! And the speech bubble on her back.
Very "innovative" programme, albeit not my taste. But, not a great skate.
Even though she was wearing a mask, you could see she was very upset waiting for her scores. And even more so when they were announced.
Into last position.

After the disappointment of Clara's SP, thankfully we did not end our run of Italian skaters on a bad note. That was really good from Anna!
Beautiful colour of a costume. Not sure it really needed to be a 2 piece costume. It would have worked better as a continuous dress.
But, the white bra strap sticking out above the bottom of the cut-out down at the small of her back really spoiled the whole look. A clear strap would have been better. Or even a dark coloured strap positioned higher up her back. Just not a white one!
She goes into 3rd, just less than a point behind Flaminia.

Totally agree. And, watching her during the Warm-Up, I thought "I want to see her programme". Even though I didn't know what the programme would be, there was just something about her and her presence on the ice that made me look forward to her.
Mistakes aside, I thought she was good too.
Mmmm. Not great scores for the two Estonians. They went into 7th and 8th positions. But, they are both within half a point of Bocconi, and within 2 points of Buscaroli. So, there is room for them to move up if they have good Free Skates.
Wow! That was either a short resurfacing, or I was further behind than I thought!

Next comes Camilla the Italian Junior championship bronze medalist! Seems like the all of the Italian junior medalist are present here. Sadly Clara who took silver didn't do too well in here.

Wow, no wonder Clara was so upset, if she was runner-up at Nationals!
Thank you for letting us know.
And thank you for the heads up about Camilla.
Before she really gets into her programme, she's wearing a lovely sweetheart dress.
