and the Carabiniere and other Municipal Police look on and light up |

Meanwhile, up at the Quirinale Presidential Palace, there's time for a Carabiniere general and colleagues to have a quick lung cleanser before boarding the bus for lunch after a strenuous meeting |

In a tiny roped off area of Pz Monte Citorio, the Carabiniere watch over a demo at the back of the parliament buildings in October 2006. A loudly amplified Andean Flute played "Santa Claus is Coming Tonight" and "Jingle Bells" repeatedly whilst everyone else chatted, blew whistles and smoked cigarettes and cigars. |

Uniforms of a different kind as an Alpino brass band helps out on a Sunday with a Spanish religious procession moving very slowly down Corso Vittorio Emanuele, carrying something very large and heavy behind a group of incense ladies walking backwards. |
