Hi Lindsay Here in Italy you usually just tke your old bottle and exchange it for another, why do you want to refill an English bottle. The regulators are different size, the same for most countries...you cant fot a French one to an Italian bottle. What are you using it for.
Hi Zoe Do you know roughly when you will be in Italy as I will be going off to work for the Summer about the middle of April. Thanks Brian
What's the problem 'Lotan4850 People stopped replying to your little rants so you need to add a little more yourself! I think you were most probably a 'Grumpy old Man' in the UK and you still are, your just living here! unfortunately. Integration means different things to everyone and not necessarily to your standards, so that does not mean yours is correct and their's is not. I think you need to get a life. Regards school, perhaps you would be better with English lessons first before Italian lessons...school is spelt so and etcetera is all one word. Reply to that!!!
Hi Zoe yes thats no problem. Where will you be coming to? you can email me at: toscana1@tiscali.co.uk Ciao brian
Take the 3 pin off and fit a multi-block so you can plug whatever you want into it. Ciao Brian

Might be an idea if you told us where it is being held.
Hello Kensington2 Like everything here you really need to shop around for prices, I would certainly forget Pine for this region with the contrasts in Winter & Summer weather. You also need to check the quality of the finish, such as double-glazing and the number and type of seals around each opening window/door. As per the reccommendation from Gala Placidia for 'Gabrielle' at Ponte Diana, I would not reccommend them as their quality is not up to modern standards, the timber sections they use are usually small which then only allows a very small double-glazed section. We had our windows and doors made by a company near St Marcello, both the window & door section is 90mm thick and 20mm glazed unit, each one also has three seals against the elements. PM me if you need any futher details. Ciao Brianm
