A chance for celebration for us, 5 years of living in Italy.
I wish this could be clarified for me, I would love to mention our apartment but that seems a no no, perhaps Valentina could explain what is acceptable?. I have read the notes re what is suitable, and am none the wiser.
We have a house and apartment in rural Marche, and would love the opportunity to see more of Italy, but we have 3 cats who are much loved and need looking after whilst we are away. Any members with property in Italy care to do a house swap?
FREE Smeg extractor cooker hood in cream with chimney. Marche, Montegiorgio area, plse pm for more details. Never used.
Does anyone know of a computer specialist in the Montegiorgio Marche area who can visit the house and sort out our rubbish connection on what is laughingly called broadband (snailband here), thanks
Can anyone please recommend a chimney sweep in Montegiorgio, Marche area, thanks
We have had our two chickens Gilda and Ruby for 5 wks now, and were becoming dispondant as no eggs in sight, but this morning we have had our first one!, I know I am over-excited about this but just had to share!
I would just like to recount an excellent story of health care in South Marche for those who are fortunate to come under the region of Fermo (hopefully this will soon apply to our friends in the area of Amandola?) Suffering from blurred vision fo
We are compiling our Christmas book list for Amazon, has anyone got any favourites to recommend, especially ones with an Italian theme?. Have read most of Donna Leon and Michael Dibden, so something else would be appreciated.A

Thanks Marcol, we shall hope to go to the hat festa in Monteponne next weekend, its our next village so not far to go, can you remember which night the fireworks are?, as they are amazing. And on Friday the 24th starting at 6pm there is a free concert in the square in Servigliano given by Alison Burns an international jazz singer. Hope I have the timing right it seems very early for Italian time.A
Perhaps you can tell us where your nearest vet is whom you would recommend?, on the assumption of course that you live here? it would most helpful to those coming out here with their much loved pets. I am afraid that friends out here have had recourse to use them in an emergency situation, perhaps you can help? For those with animals it is a serious question.a
John I am the last person on the community to know anything about this, but I have a friend who does.....another job for Sarah! or if anyone else has the knowhow please feel free.A
John ,I notice only one is listed for Marche ,and thats in Ancona, would it help if we could recommend our own vets in our own areas?If so then for us it has to be the fantastic Dott.ssa Angelita Serri at Via Faleriense 36 passo S. Ginesio MC, who has literally saved the lives of 2 of our cats (remember Misha?) she does seem to specialise in cats, and is very experienced .Tel 349 8653579.surgery hoursmornings, Mon,Wed,Friday 10.30-11.30Pms Monday to Friday 17.30-19.30I wonder if it would be possible to stretch this to all regions and for personal recommendations from other members to be added?A
Charlie dog ate another burger too, what an opportunist,! great to see everyone, a good evening, early night tonight.A
A really great evening, thanks to all who donated and all those that attended, and also a big thanks to those who donated on the night, its great to have cash thrust at you for such a good cause, we will be doing the count in a few days time, and will post the totals.A
John is right about the regulations regarding B&B, and its something we would not have considered after doing our homework. But with regard to a pool, we dont have one and it has not been a bar to letting, we attract guests who prefer walking ,art galleries, and enjoying rural Marche food. What you do need to do for peace of mind and legal reasons, is find a good commercialista and get your tax liability sorted out.A
Hi Kevan, they know you are all coming, look forward to meeting you.Angie
I hope to win the raffle prize which offers a stay at Russ and Serges home, failing that when we are all not so busy, we can do a house swap for a few days!, they can look after our cats and we can look after the chickens. But seriously I do think the key is to offer something a bit special, and if on site play the discreet but helpful host. I think it is much more difficult if you use agency staff, that personal touch just is not there, and reliable staff may be hard to find.But I wish you well in your venture.A
Your new group is there Russ, I have just joined.Ax
