Ciao e tutti, Just a little warning. Ryanair was weighing cabin baggage on the early flight last week from Stansted to Ciampino. I had practised so I put on my three coats & filled my pockets to get under the 10kg limit.

Ciao e tutti Has anyone got a good Italian domain name company? I normally use 123-reg.co.uk but they do not seem to do .it domains. I need POP access, forwarding & webmail. Cosa consiglia?   Salve

Just a bit of a heads-up! Ryanair were weighing hand baggage on the Limoges - Luton flight on Tuesday and on the Stansted - Dublin today!! Thay are perhaps having a bit of a purge. Anyone got any updates please post as I am on the

Hi Trisha,You might find it useful to read some of the threads on the old forum:http://www.italymag.co.uk/forums/legal/9803-private-health-insurance-aga...Also you can find some much cheaper insurance options if you need to go down that path:http://www.italymag.co.uk/forums/legal/9803-private-health-insurance-aga...& see this linkhttp://www.allianzras.it/salute/scacciapensieri (8-19 Euro per month depending on cover required)Apparantly this policy was enough to satisfy ASL demands for health cover for some forum members. Don't forget you can get at least two and a half years with an E106 this will only leave you with just a bit to find before you automatically get full status at retiremenmt age.See here:http://www.completefrance.com/cs/forums/465535/ShowPost.aspx (It is from a France forum but they have the same arrangements.) Also just to encourage you I just got my Tessera Sanitaria without insurance by registering as an "imprenditore agricolo" (farmer). I just had to produce my carta d'identita, codice fisacle, & certificate of residence (now called "Attestazione di regolarità per i cittadini dell'Unione Europea") & my temporary Tessera Sanitaria was printed out on the spot with the plastic one to follow in the fullnes of "Italian" time. It took over a year and about 10 visits to Commune & ASL & a 2 to a tabacchi to get my "Marco Bolli" but you wouldn't believe how many people I know now! Salve

Ciao e tutti No sign of any bag weighing either to or from Stansted - Ciampino this month!"in la bocca al lupo"

Hi RamIs it this one:Scacciapensieri costa solo 124 euro all'anno (circa 11 euro al mese) per la protezione completa, che diventano 206 euro all'anno (circa 19 euro al mese) se svolgi una professione più esposta al rischio di infortuni. Nel caso fossi interessato invece solo alla copertura extraprofessionale, il prezzo si riduce a soli 88 euro all'anno (circa 8 euro al mese).Thanks
