Can't imagine it's too difficult to work out Pamela, just check your flight or ferry bookings.
Karenr, you can always use a proxy server for a small fee - give it a google!
There are a lot of nice people on the forum and I enjoy dipping in and often get great advice!
SUN ? IT'S PISSING DOWN IN ST ANDREWS !
Sorry to hear that, the house will be very difficult to sell in it's present state. A reliable UK builder who fancies a nice long holiday in Sicily would be nice - but then that might upset the locals.
Sounds like you need a booster pump to improve your water pressure, we fitted a 500 watt pump with an electronic control -very common in Italy. That would soon empty your scaldabagno!
How long is a piece of string? As regards a septic tank, I reckon it should be possible for less tan 2K. I put one in recently, (but did most of the work myself - except the digging!) for around 1450 Euro in total. I suggest you should get more than one estimate for the works, but of course it's difficult to know you are getting genuine quotes and not being diddled by colluding builders.. Buona Fortuna!!!
How on earth can the average guy in the street find the dosh for an accountant I wonder Penny ? Although I expect their fees are tax deductible.
There seems to be some tax free allowances see below from "angloinfo"
Deductible Burdens and Tax Allowances
Tax allowances include the so-called "no-tax area", (a deduction of between €3,000 and €7,500 to avoid taxing those on low incomes), as well as allowances for dependant family members (dependant wife and/or children). Some deductible burdens (oneri deducibili) are expenses which can be used to reduce the total income. For example: some types of medical expenses, national insurance contributions, donations to religious institutions, donations to universities, research bodies and associations for the protection of assets of artistic interest, the cadastral income (income deriving from the value of any land owned) of the main residence are considered to be deductible burdens. Some deductible burdens are expenses which can be used to reduce the amount of the gross tax due. Again by way of example: medical expenses, passive interest on mortgages, education expenses, donations to Bodies or Foundations for research, for performing arts, for social purposes, donations to political parties.
Oo err..
