Someone posted on the old forum about the thousand-year old trails used for the movement of sheep herds from Abruzzo to Puglia. I think they have a special name, but can't remember it. Anyway, a very go-ahead Abruzzese now offers the chance to wa
Has anyone seen this movie? If so, can they explain the point of it? Saw it tonight and glad I'd bought the cheap seats! Has it been shown in Italy? If so, what's the Italian verdict?
Saw this at my local fleapit this evening. Specially recommended to those of us not in Italy - it conjures up the Italian way of talking about and preparing food - I could almost taste the sparkling wine they were drinking. This is a good preci

I'm doing a bit of research on Italians who helped escaping PoWs and have come across a photo with the following written on the back:Montefalcone li 25-6-1944 (A Piceno)Mio dovere come patriota, lasciarvi a tutti il ricordoFamiglia xxxx, xxxx xxxx
I've posted about this newsletter before, in the old forum, but thought I would remind those with an interest in S Marche of its continued existence. It has now been going for a year, and a celebratory gathering is suggested in the latest edition

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??

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!
