TARI Tax 2024
Just had my TARI bill for 2024. I used the PagoPA website to pay it online
I had major problems with it not accepting my payment - it seemed to freeze after the card details were entered.

Imagine our delight to find that a landslide has closed the pass "for the foreseeable future"

We used to use Book Depository to get books for our Italian friends at Christmas.
Book Depository now closed. Does anyone know of an Italian (or EU) bookshop that will accept orders from the UK and deliver to an Italian address?

I found on line catalogue www.margheriti.it. or this search on the old forum might help http://www.italymag.co.uk/forums/search.php?searchid=778139
From the little I know about staining floors, many [all?] wood stains don't really soak into the wood that much. If I remember correctly, you apply the stain, leave it for about 10 minutes or so, and then remove the excess with kitchen roll. If not dark enough, you stain again after a day or so So 'Impregnata' may have been working properly
I'd choose a place that is not on a main/busy road, that has neighbours nearby, preferably in sight of the house. Put bars on windows [ground floor at least] and fit a burglar alarm [from UK] - and a good set of doors and locks.
It might be better with 2 Groups " Articles Wanted" and "Articles For Sale" It would probably make it easier for the users

You might find it well worth doing a 'search' of the old forum 'Property Sales and Rental Advice Threads http://www.italymag.co.uk/forums/7/property-sales-rental-advice?pp=20&daysprune=-1 I think you'll find some good advice there, once you start digging into it

"I think its great idea, alan h but I couldn't afford to to that you must be rich !" It doesn't need that much cash - if you do the maths, you need to cover the gas and electric used whilst at the house, if you allow say £70 for each winter week and £40 for each Summer one that you spend there, it isn't a lot that you have to top up each time you visit [but do allow a 'float, and for the iniquitous Italian bank charges] I reckon to pay in no more than a couple of hundred every other visit - often less
