Questions Asked
Testing the group. Can you help by posting something to see whether it is working?
I just heard that the Italian MotoGP pilot Marco Simoncelli has died in a horrific accident at Sepang (Malaysia) during the Grand Prix.
This is "funghi porcini" time and you will find them sold fresh everywhere. A great time to enjoy them. There are many ways to prepare them: sauces, garnishes, omelettes, pasta....
Further to previous posts and threads, I did not get an answer from Admin regarding the current status for "Northern Tuscany" group... Consequently, I decided to do something different and I requested the creation of a new group...
Could anyone explain why it is not possible to access the Northern Tuscany Group? I am supposed to be its Administrator and I have not received any information regarding this.
We are just back from a n enjoyable week in Rome and I must mention the great coffee we had at Piazza Sant'Eustachio, a sort of "sanctuary" for all coffee lovers.
We were driving around Lucca when I saw at a newsagent a headline from regional newspaper "Il Tirreno" stating that the Royal couple were coming to Lucca during their honeymoon.
I travel to San Francisco, California, quite frequently as my two daughters live there. I love the city and I have always noticed its strong Italian influence.

And just a little reminder that a bit (or a lot) of patience is required at this time of the year. It happens everywhere during the holiday season.
Another Catholic organisation that runs second hand shops is EMMAUS. It has an office in your region at Tolmezzo. Ask the local parish and they should be able to inform you.
It should be fine as a cooler wall would make the initial establishment of the plant easier. It would grow in partial shade. Careful with two things, it can cause damage to the wall and the berries, containing oxalic acid, are poisonous.It also needs generous watering to get it started.
Congratulations on the purchase. You can now remember the signing of the "rogito" as just another anecdote. Yes, usually it takes a while although we missed on all the "fun" as we gave a power of attorney to our agent. But then, the signing of the power of attorney was quite an experience, even if we do manage quite well in Italian.....
Great idea and it is never too late. Thanks for the tip!
From memory, you were in the old forum, so good to see you back. Best wishes,
Hello, Fairy Nuff, and welcome. Your area is beautiful, we are near you at Bagni di Lucca. Best wishes regarding your plans. The "piano, piano" and the "domani" syndrome are all part of the fun.
Hi Monica and welcome. Enjoy!

Difficult question to answer regarding times. The passport does not take long once citizenship is granted. You need application forms, photos, Italian certificates (birth, marriage, naturalisation). You should talk to your local Italian authorities to ascertain how long will you have to wait.
