I would be very grateful for a link of pre dial budget phone numbers in Italy for phoning UK mobile to mobile. The ones you can call first before you enter the number.( ie without needing a card) Thanks in advance
Nah. If you bought at the start of 2006 for e100,000 and sold at the same price today your gain would not be anything like £29,240. After entry and exit charges, notary fees, tax, agents fees and moving costs you would be lucky to have much of a gain at all. If you then had to to re-enter the UK market, after stamp duty and legal fees you would almost certainly be nursing a loss. Property is an illiquid asset and nobody makes a net gain however favourable the prevailing exchange rate unless they find a buyer. We know 5 sets of people trying to sell at the moment, most stuffed by exchange rates, 2 of them for over 2 years, very difficult middle market, not sure they feel like "winners", they just want to move on with their lives.
What do the following Italian place names have in common? (might be the odd typo as doing from memory)MontaniVille RaspaSpoltorePomaceVilla St MariaCapelleMulinoMonte SilvanoMadonna. First correct answer wins a tufty badge and wax crayons (subject to availability)
wise words Anne, when I read all the threads here on green energy solutions, solar, photovoltaic, geothermic, wind turbines, heat banking systems, I always think of the farmers around here who invariably live in enormous 300 sq metre plus houses, but spend the entire winter in tiny kitchens with a cosy fire and a telly. My nearest neighbours live exactly like this, they are in their seventies, the open fire has a back boiler, they coppice their own wood, they also grill their meat on it. I have been there when the extended family have visited and they all happily squish into the space. This frugality along with the ancient Fiat Punto van outside might give the impression of poverty, but rest assured the Mercedez and Lamborghini tractors are in the magazzino. Despite this it's a good example that one of the most effective and underrated ways of reducing your carbon footprint is simply to reduce your expectations.
She's an Amandola girl, living in Termoli, hence the numerous propertys in the Marche, many have been for sale for years and double up on other websites, Bruni etc. The vagueness of location (which I agree is annoying) is not so much fear of dishonest buyers but other agents and in particular paranoia of the burgeoning numbers of unregistered expat property finders who will easily identify and track down the ones they feel they can 'sell' (or recommend) and add them to their discreet folios.
Love Pinemartins, please dont harm them.(You're kidding yourselves if you think nicking lead is a recent phenomena or something peculiar to British society. Its always happened, particularly when the price of lead has been high. The enormous roof above above where i am writing was stripped of lead in the 50's and is now ashphalt. Remember reading the copper guttering was stolen from a house in Italy from one of the posters above......so please dont fantasise that crime like this doesnt happen in Italy as sadly it does!
With nearly twice as many fatalities on Italian roads as opposed to UK, its quite rational to feel more nervous. things are definitely improving, but still a long way to go. Console yourself that its significantly safer than others, Greece and Portugal to name two shockers!

Yes all place names, but WHAT do they have in common? What is the link?

Thanks for the link Penny, I know somebody who would love to do the degree.I might be wrong but it looks like the 4 in 1 package is $260 (not Euro).
