As we are not in Italy all year round it is not economic that we subscribe to the more expensive Sky monthly package so we have the basic and have purchased a Sky Pass to view football matches - from UK and Champions League etc. Our problem is th
We had problems in the summer with our electric current going off in a storm and then the electric pump to pump water away from the drain outside our semi underground garage did not work so our garage got flooded. This was all in our absence so w
Hi everyoneThose in Italy have the hot weather - us at present in England have the Bank holiday! Does anyone know of a site which gives the proposed timetable for broadband coverage in Italy by comune please? When in Italy we are in northern Laz
I like the new format. Well done to all.Can anyone advise please as to whether ICI have been abolished for A2 category prima casa if the person paying is registered as resident at the anagrafe - or is there just a fixed amount deduction. Thank
Hi again....since my original post we had to change our VPN from expattelly as, when it came to renewing, they were overhauling their site and could not renew at the time we needed. We signed up with strongvpn and they have been very good. There have been a few difficulties connecting various tablets/ipads but they have a 24 hour "chat now" feature and they have always sorted out the problems satisfactorily. And yes, we can get ITV and BBC.
Hi again. We are near part-time neighbours ....in Capodimonte. I have just seen your last post and will contact him again. He may get in touch direct if he joins the community. Best wishes.
Hi julianccp - I may know someone ... English .... who lives near the Lake and can ask him ..... But are you still looking? I have not logged on for some while and only saw your post just now.
We are in northern Lazio and laurel hedging, which seems to be very popular in our village, was planted by the builder/previous owners. It has the benefit of growing fast and thickly but I agree with others here that it is a real pain to keep under control. Gala's suggestion of asking at your local nursery seems a good idea.
Apologies - I have come a bit late to this thread as I have not accessed the site for a while but I just wanted to say, whatever happens, how much I appreciate the advice Fillide has given in the past ... and I hope that she will do so again in the future.
Hi Ani-boo. Welcome to the Community and I hope that you get advice on your queries in your other post. I am sorry that I don't have any useful info on those but there are some really knowledgeable members who I am sure can help. Like you I have been drawn back to Italy (mainland) because of my parents being Italian. I hope that you have a successful time in Sicily when you visit.
Thanks Spud. Sorry for delayed thanks but have been away. We will investigate the Ufficio Forestale when we are over together as his Italian is not quite up to it I think. It beats having to drive into Viterbo for a licence!
Thanks everyone. It was just the way that the first choice from the side drop down menu did not use the classification A which confused me - instead it had "abitazione principale" and the C categories I mentioned above. All sorted now. No separate pertinenze as the garage is underneath and no outhouses, chicken sheds, rabbit hutches nor moats with duck islands etc (joking!)
Thank you Penny and Gala. As ever you have come up with great advice. You are right Penny because when I clicked on the first category - prima casa - and then scrolled down to the bottom of the page there was the calculation in tiny font and it was the same answer I had originally worked out. I haven't changed the house since it was built 5 years ago Gala so will still be in the A2 category but I can see that others might be affected.
