Hello to all who have bravely found their way here - please fire away with questions about the website. It is all in a very rough state right now but we are working hard to polish everything and get a nice place for us to discuss.

Ciao Lambo - it may be that you were trying to sign into the old forums. They will lock someone after five attempts.This site will keep you signed it unless you explicitly sign out - so you don't need to sign in every time you come back to it.

I have a thousand things to do this morning - but now I just really want to solve this....
Hi All - links to fundraising pages and updated pages are going up soon.Also we were thinking of a photo competition with a small entry prize (2gbp) - and a nice prize at the end (need to see how much I can get!) plus an article in the magazine.will sort details and get it started soon.also in touch with groups in abruzzo and will be updating here.
I don't know quite how to take that :)but seriously, I realise this is a radical departure from the previous forums. it will take a bit of getting used to but hopefully as information fills out the various spaces and you get used to the layout it will become easier to navigate.
