Hi  We need urgent information on this as we have been told what looks like rubble to us is "stabilizzante" a mix of gravel and sand to harden off and level out an area where a building has been knocked down to create a solid base....?

Hi   Has anyone any idea if the Italian Poste has the equivalent of a bankers draft and if so, are there are any limits on the amount and what is the cost...?

  Anyone care to hazard a guess at the current cost to have an old(ish) 250sqm house rewired? Also do you know if they do low level voltage lighting?

We are unsure about moving articles over there as opposed to buying when we get there, but know it will likely cost more to buy over there and be more hassle. So we want to get an idea of the cost of moving some of our stuff out there?

  We are here in Abruzzo now and are thinking about privately buying a car. We have been told we need a notario to buy, is that correct? If this is the case does anyone have any idea of the likely cost?

... I would strongly suggest you look at a "MIFI" router (don't ask what is "MIFI" , basically a wireless mobile dongle). If you can get one in the UK and have it unlocked - "3" will do this for a price, but sure other "backstreet" guys will do it cheaper, you will have something you can put in the best place in the house for reception without having to put your PC there.... You can also carry it with you and have access as you travel e.g. car, airport where ever you have reception... You can get one from "3" UK on a monthly deal (no link to "3", just so happens that's what I'm using right now...) ... Go in to the shops they have in the UK and ask ("3" and/or  the others) them.. tell them exactly what you want to do... If like they are anything like the "3" shop I visited, they are very helpful as they told me exactly what I needed to do and which way to go... In Italy go to one of the bigger shopping areas and into one of the big electrical stores where they sell mobiles... The one we went to had 3-4 staff who spoke English... Be prepared to not be online for a few days... and take your Codice with you... They all do monthly deals the same as here in the Uk... we had a WIND dongle last summer for 6mth at €10 per mth on offer.. .Expect to pay up to €20....

... if you go via Newcastle (North Shields actually where you arrive). The roads are fine at the moment as most of the snow has gone. However there is a possibility of more next week and from what we understand (have a house just up the road from there, but are away at the mo) they have not been clearing the roads too well... good luck whatever you do...

... router type model, pc speed memory etc, operating system, AV software and how are you connected e.g. wireless or hard wired? Can't say it will help, but may be able to provide a few suggestions :)

http://www.gardeningknowhow.com/vegetable/tips-for-growing-squash.htm I would suggest Italy is the home of the butter nut squash and that would be the best to grow there...  :)

Oh Ron ... hijacking a post is not on :) , start a new one, after a search for what you are after of course. I can testify it's well worth the effort for what else you will learn in doing so.... :)
