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

Depends on if you are a basic cleaner , or someone that managers the property for a client.....I KNOW rather than guess that Penny has got the hourly rate just about right. It is also dependant on the level of service required by the client.....eg bottom sheets ironed. And on a another level that you can be called on as the key-holder to any emergency (and these do happen!).
Generous, but very wasteful of energy resources, maybe people elswhere need to be mindful before they switch on, and educated on the fact that these things are not infinate. A very dispiriting article in the Guardian today on the world food crisis, especially with regard to climate change, and the failure of crops. Dont know what it would take for people to wake up to the fact that the future of their children and granchildren is at risk.
Thats interesting Fillide, I hope ENEL dont spot the fact I have the builders in and there is some drilling going on...no trips so far.But better use the hair dryer before they arrive!.
We run the house and the apartment on 3kw....has only tripped once in 6 years when 3 guests were using hairdryers at the same time!. Always hob gas kettle, but we have an English toaster and washing machine.I guess we live rather simply without the need or the want for too many appliances. Alans warning re unplugging the computer when there is a storm is well founded. Had a lightning strike in the house which blew up the printer and as I was standing next to it at the time taught me a lesson about unplugging as well as logging out.
Thank you for reminding me Badger...only 15mins from us and I have always been meaning to visit.....we will be ok as long as I dont come home with a goat....have always wanted a goat......!
Thanks Badger, will bear that in mind...
Thanks again great support from the forum. Sebastiano, wise advice, that had been on my mind too.
Thanks both. She has been to the carabinieri but has not gone so far as to making a denuncia yet....a horrid situation to be in.
Get a good commercialista...one that has other ex-pat clients and is used to dealing with their needs.
Interesting...today we had a visit from Italian neighbours who live in a flat above the local supermarket. They have 4 houses to sell, two in the village and two in the countryside.....inherited from family, they are by no means wealthy, I would guess the opposite.
