Hi Gala, Have just returned from Lunigiana and was also amazed to find that we could now pay our ICI through direct debit which is wonderful as we had to use an agent and they were quite expensive. Is it true that the taxes in all Comunes have been reduced as both my husband and myself usually pay ICI for each of us and so far we have only received one bill......Haven't tried to pay the ICI by direct debit yet, need to have my full wits about me I think, However, if you have how did you get on?
Hi Have been bringing plants, cuttings and bulbs back and forth for the past number of years from Spain, Italy, Uk, France...in fact most of Europe. As far as I am aware this is permitted by European law as all nurseries must have a licence and all plants are numbered, so therefore if any problems they can be traced back to their origin. Only healthy (?) plants can be sold in Europe believe it or not......... however as some posts say I think there are certain plants that different countries ban. Just check the immigration of that particular country.
Hi Moxie,Yes I am inclined to agree with you, I have just been a member of the original forum for approx 9mths and while I have sent posts etc., I wouldn't say they were very informative or of great value generally but I really reading all topics including "the funnies" and have gained some much more knowledge about Italy.I would hate to be omited from reading some posts because of my limited posting.
