I am intending to leave Marche on Sat 3 Sep by car to drive home. Will I miss the traffic that causes huge jams on the motorway as Italians drive home from their summer holidays?

Has anybody else had a 90% increase in their house insurance premiums from Intasure? Or was it just that they enticed me in with a low quote last year? 

Hmm. I'm terribly sorry about this post, partly as it makes me look disorganised and rubbish. Basically, I agreed to help someone move house in the Appignano area, on 26 April. My diary for that day reads: "Appignano removal, Teresa". The enquiry was made by email, but no trace of the conversation exists in my inbox. Rather odd.

If this is you, or a friend of yours, please get in touch and confirm. Otherwise I may well be off in the UK on the 26th, which would be no help at all!

With thanks and apologies.
