 No everyone pays the on line check in fee irrespective of whether you check in luggage or not. This charge is for on line check in for passengers.

We have always had our hand luggage weighed, especially the last two years- (Düsseldorf (Weeze) – Milan and Düsseldorf Weeze – Stansted)My hand luggage in February was 11.5 instead of 10 kg so I had to repack it there and then. The check in clerk suggested that we fill our coat pockets with small items, which we did! Remember a handbag counts as hand luggage as does a laptop. You are only allowed one piece of hand luggage. If you have a handbag and or laptop, they will ask you to put it into your hand luggage suitcase and then they re-weigh it. 

I am not sure what the exact cost is but I will find out. I know that it varies according to the size and age of property. Currently consumer groups are putting pressure on the government to set a fixed price. Several estate agents are offering it as an extra ‘’free’’ service to attract potential buyers/sellers. Energy companies are doing the same to ‘’encourage’’ consumers to switch suppliers. 

Thank you so much for your time and effort  I need all the help I can get

All in line with EU regulations.  It was introduced here on 1st Jan this year but it certainly doesn't cost anything like the amounts quoted in this thread

 I saw the report on the early morning news   Italy has certainly had it's share of tragedy this year.

There is a two-letter word in English that perhaps has more meanings than any other two-letter word,  and that word is 'UP.'  It is listed in the dictionary as being used as an [adv], [prep], [adj], [n] or [v]. It's easy to understand UP, meaning toward the sky or at the top of the list, but when we awaken in the morning, why do we wake UP?  At a meeting, why does a topic come UP ? Why do we speak UP, and why are the officers UP for election and why is it UP to the secretary to write UP  a report? We call UP our friends and we use something to brighten UP a room, polish UP  the silver, we warm UP the leftovers and clean UP the kitchen. We lock UP the house and fix UP the old car.  At other times the little word has a real special meaning. People stir UP trouble, line UP for tickets, work UP an appetite, and think UP  excuses.  To be dressed is one thing but to be dressed UP is special.And this up is confusing:  A drain must be opened UP  because it is stopped   UP. We open UP a store in the morning but we close it UP at night.   We seem to be pretty mixed UPabout UP !  To be knowledgeable about the proper uses of UP , look the word UP  in the dictionary. In a desk-sized dictionary, it takes UP almost 1/4 of the page and can add  UP to about thirty definitions  If you are UP  to it, you might try building UP a list of the many ways UP is used. It will take UP a lot of your time,  but if you don't give UP, you may wind UP with a hundred or more.  When the sun comes out after it's been raining, we say it is clearing UP. When it rains, it wets UP the earth. When it does not rain for awhile, things dry UP.  I'll wrap it UP , for now  ........my time is UP , so time to shut UP!  Oh...one more thing:  What is the first thing you do in the morning & the last thing you do at night?  U   P  

Thanks for the info, very useful   Between Google Translate and my dictionary, fingers crossed that I order the correct document!

 Thank You

and then you won''t need to walk on eggshells :bigsmile:
