Well we just can't get Jessie out of the water and to celebrate her 9 month Birthday, we went down to our lovely Lago di Ruffino for a swim!

Did anyone just feel that earth tremor at 11pm. Here near Amandola it was very strong but short, the first we have felt for a while. Hope this does not mean there is worse to come.

Had a great meal in Da Cicco in Gualdo last night. Although it was 10pm when we arrived, Michelle the lovely waitress was very helpful and friendly (she is Romanian) and spoke very good Italian and English.

The devastating earthquake that struck the region of L'Aquila on April 6th 2009 is long gone from newspaper headlines and television reports.

Please can we make a list of raffle tickets bought and add them on here when we have been notified. If we can try and just keep this post for the raffle ticket listing so that it is easier to add up. Thanks.

Thanks Badger - we have been keeping our eyes on the forecast for several days now, doing lots of keeping everything crossed etc etc. Only hope it warms up and dries out a bit - our forecast yesterday said 10 - 13oC for Sunday - ouch!
A very exciting prize will be added very soon so get your raffle tickets now (don't forget to put BBQ next to your name on the Just Giving site!). Thanks so much you generous people.
More raffle prizes coming soon ...... Keep an eye out!
Coppicer - we had to take our 'puppy' to the vets as she had a tick on her eyelid, right next to her eye. She told us that the way you mentioned is the correct way to remove them but because it was right on her eye, it was impossible. Jessie did have Frontline on her, but at this time of year, it just didn't seem to work.The vet put a new treatment (will try and find out the name) on her and said the tick would fall off automatically within 24 hours, which it did thank goodness - horrid creatures! Why were they invented?
Noooooo more jobs A - not enough hours in the day after selling raffle tickets and BBQing - but come on............... we are only £21 short of £11000. Lets aim for £12000 next!
Don't worry about Angie and Robert's cramp - just buy more tickets!!!! A & R - I hear salt is good for cramp!
