Hi sebastiano, Do you not have concerns about security, if any old passer-by can access your network ? I know wi-fi passwords can be 'cracked', but I'm not sure I'd just allow anyone to just park outside and 'log-on' ? S

Hi Allan, You do indeed have a HUGE dish ! An installer locally here is providing 1.2mtr dishes and (I THINK) pointing to Astra 1N (or it maybe Astra 1S ??), which provides access to BBC etc. Your comment "I think it will be interesting to see if either or both of us continue to be able to receive the BBC when their transmissions are taken off the Astra 1N satellite at the end of this year or beginning of next." ..........I wonder what impact that will have ? Is this a definite ? S
Apology accepted....! In reality what you say is true, I stand by my initial views though ! Hot here innit ?

An absolute must not miss is the Montappone hat festival, do not miss it and if you like firework displays, stay till the end.... 27 July 2012 to 29 July 2012 In the Piazza in Servigliano, there will be all kinds of things going on most nights, this link (which is from a local and very good agriturismo - trequerce - well worth a visit just for lunch) has a list of some of the spectacular events around the area. http://www.trequerce.it/territorio/eventi.cfm S
Welcome to the community........it has certainly provided me with LOTS of invaluable info over the years...... re the tourist tax.........I have to say I have not noticed this, perhaps because we live here it has escaped us ? It does appear to be in the major cities, there is a link here......... http://www.etoa.org/policyareas/tourist-taxes/italy S
Cucciolo, Well done, a great 'clear the air' comment............the content of your link is super, my comments were not meant to directly criticise, I felt just the photos alone would suffice...... Best of luck and enjoy your travels, S
