Someone asked me to report on our stay in the Ospizio San Gottardo on our way down by car. Having recovered sufficiently from the heat on arrival in Italy here goes:Thanks to all of you who recommended routes and hotels.

In September I'm doing the nearest I'll ever do to jetsetting by flying back to London for a meeting then out again the next day! I'm planning to leave the hire car at Ciampino overnight.

I've just finished this book written in 1966 by John Verney, who was a PoW in Sulmona and was looked after by local contadini after his escape.

Hitting Dunkirk 7pm local time on 15th June and planning to get a couple of hours under our belt. I have been looking at hotels around Namur, but can't decide.

Thanks Ronald - done that, though for others who are as neurotic as me about clicking the right bit - I'll just say that1. Notifications is a Tab2. It says Administer Subscriptions, rather than Manage (sounds vaguely priest-like)3. You have the choice of "edit" or "drop" when you get to your current subscriptions4. If you click on "drop" it then says something very scary - "THIS ACTION CANNOT BE UNDONE" - above an unsubscribe button.5. Clicking on the unsubscribe button doesn't bring a thunderclap but does seem to remove that particular subscription! :D
I never really got to grips with star ratings and the like before. I read posts that were: - on a topic that interested me or- by someone whose postings I'd enjoyed in the past or- came up when I searched for a particular subject or- that I'd contributed to and wanted to see what responses there'd beenThere were discussions about building a bank of knowledge on certain perennial subjects - is that a possibility here - so newbies in particular can be directed to it?As to ranking ourselves depenent on number posts, length of service etc, I never really liked that. Maybe we could pick from a range of "characters" one which best describes our involvement??
"(a list of topics can be seen on the left-hand side)" - It's on the right of my screen
Yup - no problem
Just saying hello and look forward to using this forum as a continuation of the old, in that it has provided me with new friends, lots of useful information, and, to be honest, some displacement activity in a busy day!I like the sound of a more interactive community - as someone who doesn't spend all her time in Italy it would be good to remain involved from a distance if I can.Many of us have arrived in out of the way corners of Italy which could do with the injection of new ideas and projects. Whilst some are bound to fail, or offend local sensibilities, I would like to think that this forum could assist those involved in sensitive integration into our local communities. I don't mean that we should be telling the Italians how to do things, and in fact I'm sure we'd get short shrift if we tried!
