We have some galvanized metal garage doors which we applied paint claiming to be suitable for the task, a couple of years ago but not long after began to blister and peel with the heat of the summer.

We think our desktop is nearing the time for replacement, and we need to have a machine running on UK/English software. Have done some research but so far have not found any company that will supply from UK to Italy.

Just a quick question, does anyone know if you are able to register your Italian address with your UK bank account. We have read that this is possible but have also heard differently.

Well done Penny!

We too have a sheep dog - one of those big white Italian jobs - and we go to Lago San Ruffino quite a bit. Like Penny we rarely meet any other dogs, or people come to that. It's lovely around there and of course there is the river for the dog to swim in and retrieve sticks. Who or what has attacked your dog?

The drums also make good "braziers" to use on the chillier Summer/Autumn nights when you are still desperate to sit outside!!

If, at  the time of your re-registration in Italy of your UK(?) registered vehicle, the authorities check to see if your MOT is still valid - from your MOT certificate. If it is, you will not need to have a revisione (MOT) done by the Italian authorities until the current MOT expires. If, however, the MOT is out of date at the time of re-registration, you will have to have a  revisione done before they will give you the Italian registration - it is normally done at the same time. This is my understanding

We have used MoneyCorp Online. It's terribly easy and allows you to book rates for forward transfers. You can check rates pretty much anytime. They charge a flat fee of £10.00 per movement.
