I became a pensioner in March and have had to use the health service here for the first time recently. I am registered as resident in Le Marche and wonder how I stand re prescriptione etc.

Questions Asked
Still looking for a caravan for my friend for his renovation - first one was falling apart and second one was taken off the market. Been told there is an Italian version of Exchange and Mart - does anyone know its name? Any help is appreciated

Wanted - a caravan suitable for 1 person to use whilst a house is renovated. Preferably close to Montefiore in Le Marche but would consider other regions if close and the caravan is easily moved.

I have a problem re parking in front of my apartment. My vendor said it was communal parking and so it was included in the contract.

As an addition to the last post re second hand stuff - can anyone recommend a book that outlines the whole restoration procedure from start to finish?

We're planning to renovate an old farmhouse in Le Marche in the traditional style.

Only selling because location here does not get good Vodafone reception. 128K sim dongle with extension lead and memory stick. Used less than 2 months, cost €99 - will accept €70.

New to Italy and just bought a new car. Insurance bill is horrific as the particular company won't recognise no claims from Sheila's Wheels although S Wheels are owned by esure via the Bank of Scotland - hardly an unknown bank!

Do you have to change the address on your UK driving licence once you have bought an apartment in italy. it is my only residence as i no longer have a place in the Uk to live.

Thanks everyone for your help - much appreciated as always!
Hi Marche Maggie, I sent you a private message on 30/10 re the caravan - let me know if it hasn't arrived please. I presume your caravan is not the one above? Look forward to hearing from you. Hazel
Thanks for this - we contacted about it a bit of time ago and it's sold.
Good idea and worth thinking about but need bathroom facilities etc.
My friend has not heard from you - is there a problem with contacting him - perhaps I got his address wrong? he needs to find a caravan soon. Please pm me.
Not got the visura yet - will let you know when have done so. Ciao!
Thanks everybody for your input. My agent is going to speak to the vendor re misrepresentation of the parking and threaten to sue him - will be fun to see how that goes. The owner objecting is impossible to speak to - we have had a meeting with him, the other owner who is quite happy to let me park, agents etc and he refuses to budge - sad man who has nothing better to do with his time. keep your fingers crossed for me!
Have sent a private message re friend who may be interested. Ciao, hazy
Many thanks everyone - I will follow this up and see the visura. Going back to my initial question though - should the vendor's claim that it was communal parking have been checked officially by the notary or agent prior to my signing the rogito?
There are 3 apartments, 2 of which have garages (I don't) but there is space between the garages for my little car. Recently one of the other owners - he owns the apartment but does not live there or rent it out and does not use the garage - has sent me a letter saying that the ground in front of the apartments is not for communal parking - it is public land - and I must stop leaving my car there. This is despite the fact that for 3 years previously he was quite happy to let the owners of the other apartment park their cars on the land until they were able to buy the 2nd garage.It seems he has a problem with the vendor of my apartment and is being difficult in order to get at him but it sadly turns out he is correct and the vendor should not have told me there was legal parking. It states in my contract however that (according to the vendor) there is communal parking - should this not have been checked by the agent involved in the sale or by the notary before I signed the contract? The owner objecting is very serious about this and may well instigate court proceedings. Advice/help please.
