Hi there - doing some research. Anyone know if there is a river Indaco near Ortezzano???Thanks in advance
I may have asked this in the past, but don't know how to search old posts. Anyway,we're spending our first family Christmas in Italy this year. Any favourite recipes gratefully received.
I've just booked flights for 23rd December for whole family including seni-reluctant grown-up children. Two scenarios present themselves to me.

What's with Belgium?? Flying back yesterday (1st July) we could see fireworks going off all over the country.

Went to see this movie last night in Oxford. Probably one of the slowest films with the least happening that I have ever seen - but actually it was perfect! Shot in Calabria - in part in Serra San Bruno - everyone will recognise a little vignett
I have just receved a document from Ray Ellis which those with an interest in recent-ish history might like to share. I don't know if I can attach it so have copied it in its entirety below - apologies therefore for length of post. Ray Ellis was

Mr Bean???
Just to add to teh above update, all the information is now available on http://camp59survivors.wordpress.com/2010/05/ That will take you straight to "L'Informatore on the Davison rescue" and after reading the first part, if you click on "Read the rest of this entry" you'll (surprise surprise) get to read the rest. And some further inside info - as a result of this publicity a fluent English speaking grand-nephew of Giovanni Bellazzi had contacted John - and informs him that Giovanni's siter is still alive at 103! I've wrned him that he is going to be doing a lot of eating during his August reunion! I hope this encourages others trying to trace their fathers' and grandfathers' experiences in Italy in WW2

And its the only service to my nearest airports I can see that those who nneed more help might find it lets them down. But I agree with the overall premise that you get what you pay for and that should always be borne in mind when booking.
Love it. More please - culinary or otherwise......
...your thread has been hijacked, though maybe everyone's ramblings will help consolidate your thoughts. Anyway - Yummmm - I'm doing that chicken thing (presumably Flemish - or is it Walloon - can't remember which are the non-French speakers) and I'm DEFINITELY trying "tagliatelle allo Marmite" Really interesting to hear an Italian view with a nod to Britishness. Any more cross-cultural musings Raggio??
I couldn't find anything on the UK news about this - only a comment on my Facebook from Italians incensed - presumably by the wasted time, effort and money. Or maybe that some jobs for the boys are now under threat!
I've pm'd you
