After my success answering Annec's question, its my turn. However, I’m not clever enough for an ‘Italian’ question – so I’ll go for one with a ‘Greek’ connection insteadI’m a ‘sad’ man who likes numbers.

They look dead - no movement, but the people below do move. They appeared yesterday afternoon, but I think there was a camera change as what you can see of the 'view' appears different from the nice view of the ski slope.  This camera seems to be pointing down onto the ground below it. I suppose the 'insects' got into the housing last autumn and have died out over winter - but as usual, I could be wrong

They may switch to another camera if they have one - so if all you see is snow, thats what they've done

Visit the HMRC website - unless things have changed, there is a 'tax category' for people who visit friends/ family regularly in the UK [not even owning property] - its all about having 'ties' with the UK - If you fall into that category, they'll tax you  [what they tax? - I'm not sure.  visit the website]   EDIT Just visited website - clear as mud - so talk to a UK tax expert

If you do a search on ICI you should find plenty of info However, the easiest way is to go to your Comune and ask them how much it should be is - it worked for us, but may depend on which Comune you live in

Article 892  of the Civil Code contains rules that apply to the siting of trees.  They are often contained in the local Building Regulations - see;- http://books.google.co.uk/books?id=EL8U8oNIjwUC&pg=PA129&lpg=PA129&dq=Italian+Law+++Article+892+c.c&source=bl&ots=tbbiES16qa&sig=5Y_Ykl8PyAEuSKskP5cBm3kuiYA&hl=en&ei=CUvXToPOM8Gk8gP7-rTNDQ&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=2&ved=0CC8Q6AEwAQ#v=onepage&q&f=false look at Page 129 para 3 The book quoted is "Italian private law"   By Guido Alpa, Vincenzo Zeno-Zencovich I suggest you ask at the Comune and/or seek legal advice

".... and Italian badger beauty brushes are considered the best! ..."   Not if you're a badger!

Cheapest option is definitely Dover Dunkirk from where you are  We travel from Northampton, so I think that your biggest problem will be avoiding the M1 & M25  morning rush hours - so it's either an early start - about 5 am at the latest, or a later one about 8.30am onwards.  I'd definitely consider a late crossing with the overnight near Dunkirk as your starter.

If in doubt - ask the Comune
