 Hi Jasper, have tried to reply for days ! Can you let me have number of your friend, if not too late? I have some small items to bring over, currently in Norfolk, but could be brought to London area. I live near Amandola, some way from Rome, but perhaps negotiations are possible.  Or am I too late ?!

John,the shop everyone is giving you directions to is well known to us, he has grown very rich from selling to English folk, and is not quite so popular with a lot of Italians.However, he does speak English, and has a good range of stock, and tiles. I would say, don't give him the idea you are "loaded" or you will not get a discounted price. If you sound a bit doubtful, the price may well come down !!!He has the monopoly on Stoves just around here, but I got a lovely French wood burner 6 years ago from Passo San Ginesio, very good discount included fitting.About tiles, theres an excellent range at Ponte Maglio, 30 mins. from Amandola, and in case you need light fittings, or small repairs, GIBAS, on Amandola,s Pian di Contro, has huge stock and friendly service, (hidden to right of Coal supermarket )Hope this is a help to you, good luck ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,carolina

Ciao Gail, lots of good ideas ,do hope the mystery will be solved,I thought it may be a quail, as syllables seemed to fit, as call is heard as "wet your lips, wet your lips", but then you said its like two stones clacking.Could it possibly be a blackcap, ours get very raucous when they see our cats !I'll watch out for recording.
