Sounds like a good collective noun. But there's definitely something going on. When I hover over the "Community Home - La Piazza" it turns into "Country Homes - restored". I think elicat has got at it already!!!
Trying to upload something, so have chosen my description of my train trip to Ancona, previously published in the old forum. Don't know if it will work, as I've had to use the "video" button as that seems to be the only upload at the momentA
I've clicked on ~"create a post", then given it a title. I've highlighted the topics "Introductions" and "Weddings", just to see where it ends up. I've put in my location, and tagged it "testing" and "posting".
Heeello - anybody there? I seem to be able to post even though my request to join is pending. A glitch, a back door, or my c*ck up?? Anyway, hope I'm in and I'll check back tomorrowAnne
Not sure if this is the right place for this but anyway..... I've managed to subscribe to posts and am now getting masses of emails. I can't find how to unsubscribe again. Can someone talk me through it?
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
I've no complaints re Ryanair, but I use it all the time and see it as a matter of honour to beat them at their own game (baggage being a continual game of catch-up). 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.
...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 posted this article in Aceto's thread as well - wrong country but heading in the right direction! http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk/2010/jun/09/british-expats-france-supermarket-deliveries
