It seem does seem good value..........I went for the 'gold' version, but not sure what extras I get ! S
There are times when I also get frustrated as I don't really understand the actual process, who does what etc. But, to date, clicking 'create content' on the menu bar up above..........works for me. BUT, one's content doesn't necessarily appear staright away (I don't know why !) I agree also that it would be 'nice' to know who is actually moderating the site. Given all that, there is a LOT of interaction here although there are times when it seems to 'stop dead'. I use to count to ten...............then I changed to fifteen ! S
On the SP239 heading out of Piane Di Falerone towards Magliano Di Tenna, on the left, they sell them for about 2euros each if I recall, and HEDGING (HA!) my bets......

My gawd........... 6 months ago, we had a problem with our dishwasher, called someone out, they 'fixed', went away and it worked (it cost 220Euro for a new circuit board). 4 months ago, another problem..............called him out again, (the original fix had a 2 yr guarantee).......this time problem with a plastic 'thingy'................he 'fixed' it, we paid 110 Euro and it worked. 2 months ago, another problem..............called him again (the original two fixes were in guarantee period !), this time problem with the pump, pump replaced , paid 130 Euro and it worked. So now, 460 Euros later........................we have ANOTHER problem..................it seems like a 'programme' related problem.............very intermittent..................should we bin it ??
