Questions Asked

I think the groups now exist

[at least - when I go to the 'make a new post' section, there they are, in the "Audience" section]

 

Anyone used the Harwich to Hook of Holland ferry service?

By chance I went on the old Forum yesterday - found that someone had PM'ed me from that forum only a few days ago.

 

I hadn't got any notification of a PM, but obviously the old Forum PM system still works 

Hopefully they may start flights to the North soon ?

what else can one say?

I can't beleive that its 17+ hours since the last post - or has my PC taken over and hidden everything?

Hopefully this will kill Blair's ambitions off.

I know it's several years ago, but we bought the flatpack beds and rolled up foam mattresses from IKEA.  They fitted in the car for transporting to our house 

Drove back last week from Italy to UK

Switzerland  - no restrictions

France - few restrictions,  mainly masks on Public Transport

United Kingdom - No restrictions, or checks on entry (even if not vaccinated)

Go to your local super/hypermarket and buy some bags of pellets there.

This may help.

Don't give up.   Talk to the Comune if the limits in modicasa's post below are being exceeded . That's what I would do. 

 

Not sure - it could be.

Sad to say that when I have a question like that, I talk to my bilingual italian friend. 

He understands the 'Italian Mentality' and can deal with such things for me.

The comune is the local council.

Looks like French travel restrictions on UK residents may be lifted this weekend.  (We live in hope!)

Not sure you can do it in February, the French suspension of the transit rule could well be time limited - "over the New Year period " according to Sky News
