Just in case you are wondering I asked Ronald if he could keep the BBQ post on the main Le Marche section at the top of the page which he has just done - felt it was getting rather lost down the bottom and soon would have ended up on Page 2 (well

Jesse at 8 months - growing up so fast now. She is never far from her new boyfriend's side and consequently had to have a little operation so we don't have a new generation of Sully's Pups!
Well the Sully's Pups group is now live so we hope to see everyone here again and lots more photos!!!
One day a florist goes to a barber for a haircut. After the cut he asked about his bill and the barber replies, 'I cannot accept money from you. I'm doing community service this week.' The florist was pleased and left the shop.

Thank you so much Karen and John - you are fantastic and your apartment is beautiful - hope I win!!!
That's Fantastic news - lets keep the ball rolling now!
Gala, on the subject of telephone books, we had our line finally connected last year and still have not received a phone book - do you have to ask for them or are they automatic like in the UK? If not, how and where do you get them as our Italian can't quite keep up with the speed of the TI recorded message to understand if it is through them. Many thanks.
Welcome Jaja56 to the Community - hope we can all help you out! As far as paint and woodstain go, if you can, you would be better bringing your own over as I really don't think there is such a thing as cheap paint in Italy!!! (or stop in Austria - Baumax is excellent, or Germany on the way). Our nearest 'B & Q' we use is Castarama off the Val Vibrata junction of the A14 motorway. There are none in Le Marche. Lidl do sometimes have offers on woodstain which is from Germany and very good value, so worth keeping an eye out - I think the last one we got from there was a very large tin for €7. There is Brico in Ascoli, but it is certainly not cheap. You can get paint mixed up for you in the Ferramenta's in Amandola near Bella Napoli (Montifortino Road). They are very helpful in there. Look forward to meeting you at some point - have you joined the Le Marche Chapter? If you are here on the 21st June, you are very welcome to come along and meet us at our L'Aquila Fundraising BBQ!!!Good luck with the house. Sarah and Mark
Andrew - would love to come over tonight - but 2 days in a row and you would be sick of us. Cash and carry sounds good - hope your meeting goes well. Would be interesting to meet him too.

Not sure about the BBQ plan - just counting the bricks in the old bbq which we will take down. Tray still €70. Not sure if it is worth it. Maybe get a smaller one made. Will come back to you on that. Just getting sick of running around to the iron place as we have been 5 times now and still no furher along!!! Our bricks = 80 Are yours normal size red bricks? Could you bring them on Friday? That's it for now
That's what I thought A, but when we said we had no posters they were upset and we didn't know how in Italian to explain the legal side of it. Maybe I could just write out some sort of smaller invites and hand them to them??? Don't want to feel we have left them out as they have always been helpful in the past. Pain my printer still not functioning!!!!
That is very kind and would be very useful back-up if we can't get a lower price for basically a tin tray! Does anyone else know a welder?Thanks so much for your Thai parcel too - have resisted so far and locked them away to avoid temptation! Have emailed M about Dogs!
