Tomorrow evening Andrea Bocelli is to perform in a concert at the colosseum, Rome, to aid the victims of the Abruzzo Earthquake - at €1000 a ticket attendance is probably out of the reach of most of us but there are ways you can help for

Hello everyone,
I have just collected a few pictures together of Paganica, a devastated town in the earthquake zone approx 4 kms west of L'Aquila.
Shall we share our favourite photos of Le Marche?
Ok - Here is Annec's question and clueswho hid under a weighbridge to escape? There's a Marche connection and the answer is actually in the old forum (for a fiver)He wrote a book. It happened in the province of Fermo.
Hello Ronald,The PM system - The first line of text doesn't appear at the receivers end or when you see the review!Also David Uno is at Visitor status instead of member - Why?

Hello Mike and Terry,Welcome to the forum! We are holding a big BBQ, wine and fun night on June the 21st near Amandola which would give you the chance to meet lots of new people and help raise more money for the Abruzzo fund at the same time.Raffle prizes - do you know anyone famous you could tap for a prize?How could you possibly have any energy in this scorching heat?Must dash as have stacks to do today - look forward to hearing from you again soon! MoxiePS Don't worry about being a technical novice - I am a bit geeky and still managed to make loads of embarrassing mistakes yesterday!!
Good Morning Kevan,I'm afraid the only way forward is to pick them off - and keep picking them off. We have spent many 'happy' hours with a tub of diesel (with lid) murdering the little beggars. (On advice from farmers next door)Good news it does not mean the end of your potatoes at all! We thought much the same but so long as you are determined and keep up with the picking your spuds should be ok.Tip - Next year move your potato patch as far away from this years as possible!Good LuckMoxie

Hello Londonlass,Given the current temperatures bucket, spade and beach seems like a plan? Or up to Lake Fiastra ? Picnics at the Abbadia?Later in the week you might need to think of indoorsy things as it looks as though we have some big storms coming!I'm sorry but I don't know where the Dinosaur Park has gone to but someone will probably pop along soon to tell you.MoxieOooh the castle at Caldarola might be an idea too
