Hi and welcome. Bagni di Lucca is a beautiful town and you will enjoy it. There are quite a fewbEnglis-speaking people in the area, British, Americans, Australians; however, there are not any organised meetings.On the other hand, there are two places where you will find them. These are the Caffes Italia and Il Monaco, in Ponte a Serraglio and Caffe-ristorante Del Sonno in Bagni di Lucca, opposite the Circolo dei Forestieri. We are not going to be in Bagni at Xmas time as we do not reside there permanently. We go twice a year, in Spring and Autumn, so perhaps we shall meet next time when we are around.
Xmas in Bagni

Mark, you may be interested in having a look at a blog from an Australian lady who has an apartment at Ponte a Serraglio: www.bellabagnidilucca.com Lots of interesting stories and data about the area. She started with another blog called Bagni di Lucca and beyond, but she has now decided to make a separate one for Bagni, as it has lots of contents. Debra Kolkka, the author, is very active in promoting the area. She also pays for and maintains all the flowers on the Serraglio bridge, changing them twice a year, matching the arrangements she plants in her balcony, which faces the bridge. A lovely person to meet.
Hi Mark, hope we meet

A pleasure, Debra. You know how much I admire your work promoting and maintaining the area. And Mark, if you can't find Debra's place, ask around. Everybody knows her. We shall also be there around Aprilil-May. Send us a PM, as our place is not as visible as Debra's.
Why oh why.

I'm sure sometimes it's just some 'looser' trolling, just for the sake of annoying someone. I know this forum/community has its fair share of muppets, but at least they have the decency to reply. So to all you a out there who post and then never reply to people who have bothered to sit down and offered help/advice/pointers, just don't bother in future.
