OK - before we either pay a fortune for a professional company to ship our goods out to Tavernelle in Umbria or a slightly smaller fortune to hire a van to do it ourself is anyone using a 7.5 tonne van to move back to the UK from Italy mid-end July 2011 thus meaning it is empty on the outbound trip? (UK to Italy).  If so would you fancy sharing the cost of the hire of the van (or man with van if you're using one?)

Hi Sagraiasolar,

I need to pm you, but don't know how the pm(ing) works!! :-(

Hi everyone,

I have been looking for a map for “walking” with reference to Le Marche, with not much luck, can anyone suggest a good map, or is there a map available at all?

 With many thanks

Not being one to moan (oh well yes I am really), but of late numerous Topics seem to get side tracked and off the subject of the Post. As there seems to be a lack of Admin input these days to keep posting all together, could we try and save time and wasted energy looking over posts that have nothing to do with the main topic and stick to the topic they are about.

I don't mind it digressing on a similar wavelength, but if one wishes to have a 'chat' with another member, I think you'll find the PM system is best suited for that.

Not sure if this has any effects on people here but,the Simplon tunnel is closed due to a fire.

Hello all,

Always usful advice given here, so I will throw this question out there.......

Will be going to my place in July, and will have to bring some work with me (grrrr...).

I will need access to the internet for 2-3 weeks and wondered what the best (and possibly cheapest) solution will be.

I was thinking/hoping a 'pay-as-you-go' dongle thingy - but whos the best provider / tariff to go with

 (I will be near Marotta, which is close to Fano)

Thanks in advance

Alan
