Does anyone know how Italy is for asthma.  Having only been couple of weeks at a time just wondering for people there long term how they find it compared to UK.  Also how they cope for treatment.  Thanks

I have just read the youth unemployement figures - very worrying!  40.5% in Italy (20.7% in UK)  which will only lead to more youngsters leaving the country to find work.  Ireland lost 400,000 15-24 year olds in last 3 years.

Did anyone see the programme on BBC4 last night - Good Italy Bad Italy - very interesting if not depressing.

I remeber a few weeks back someone said they couldn't have an electric kettle on at the same time as water heater. Is this something that only happens in rural areas or is it everywhere?

I am appealing for help please. My great nephew 8 year old Jude is now really disabled with Muscular Dystrophy. He is a really happy little boy but due to his deterioration finding things to keep him busy is becoming more difficult.

Thought it might be interesting to know why people chose the area they now live in. Whether its because you have family there, just like the area etc.

Thanks Casa Monal.  I have amended as suggested.

Thank you for that.  My family are from Zeri which is top left hand corner of Tuscany.  I have been on facebook and seen some pictures.  It appears to be just the road up to the valley that has some landfall but apparantly the phone lines are down so no actual news from the valley. Keeping fingers crossed the villages are ok.

Thank you for posting the links.  Such devastation.  I hope all my friends are ok.  Trying to find out about my own area now as its not far away.

Some people will also look from outside and think 'that's not what I am looking for' or the area isn't right so they think they won't bother you by looking inside.  They should ring though so you are not sitting waiting.  If you don't tidy up and the place is a tip to be sure they will all turn up!! Good luck! PS The Italians don't even bother to tidy up for the photos never mind viewings!!

Put a link to some pictures and the price.   Someone could see it and think 'wow I llike that' and they might not have been seriously looking!  good luck.
