2749 Saturday Express

Did anyone get the express last saturday - just been called by a friend, who tells me another article on Marche written by Angela Rippon - can't find a web link to it. Any ideas?

Would have been good if they had told me saturday - so I could have got a copy, buy hey?

sorry if its sort of a strange question but if you live in the place why on earth do you want to keep reading british newspaper articles about it....surely you must know it better than they do anyway.... the marche that is... or am i missing some point ...

Hi John, when you are running a business, its a really good idea to have articles etc for finance purposes and also when we are exhibiting at things like the World Travel Market, Viva Italia, Dolce Vita etc.

If we want to be successful, then we have to give people more than good reason to choose our place to stay, rather than someone elses, and of course a great encouragement to come to the region itself.

So, no for you - it probably wasn't a stupid question from you, but hope this explains my thirst for the printed matter.

Villasibilli Family Business..

Perhaps you could keep the following links somewhere safe so you can view on a regular basis? Just go to the travel sections search facility and type in your area/business name.. if there is anything in the archives.. you will see your name come up in lights!

Anyway, here are all the links for you again.. in case you lost them last time.. or the time before.

Enjoy! Happy reading!

Hi there - I'm sorry I can't offer any help re the newspaper but do have question for you re the documentary you participated in a few years ago. When you and your daughter travelled down to the coast to look at possibilities for relocating there, there was a shot of the two of you walking down a pedestrianised street - what town was that, Pescara or Ancona? (the bit where you noted a tune that you heard reminded you of a Cornetto ad)

I know it seems a bizarre question but am curious as the town looked quite nice.

Oooer Pam..

We both know Aliena is a treasure.. but don't tell everyone! Anyway, your welcome, everything is fine and I'm the one who deleted the posts!

Hi Sano, long time, no speak - it was Ancona - and can recommend it. See the Piazza del Papa and definitely eat ice cream at Bar Rosa, have cocktails at the Liberty cocktail bar and dinner at Strabacco's Jaz restaurant. Let me know if you need anywhere else.

Or don't forget to go to Portanovo and have tea at the Napoleonico Fort which is now a 4 star hotel. Great fish restaurants right along the beach - fish soup for lunch at our friends called the Capannina!

I am really hungry now!
