I see we have a Restaurant Review procedure - but could we have all the reviews as their own topic so it's quick and easy to see what's been recommended.  Currently on a search I have to wade through all the other food stuff.  Or am I doing someth

Yesterday a German friend was telling me about an English friend of hers who wanted to get "closer" to a French woman of his acquaintance.  So he decided to invite her out for a meal.  But of course to the English, anything too lavish on a first d

Thanks KevanLooks like the walk starts some way from Castellucio.  Is there an obvious starting point or do you just plunge in off the road?

Now Andrew - what cultural difference are you trying to illustrate?  Pedantic English versus flamboyant continental???  (Though come to think of it, for some reason I've always thought of Gala as Australian)

It used to be really helpful to be able to hover over a post title and see the first line of the actual post.And if we're having a "quotes" system - will that get rid of the current "reply" system which means posts aren't in chronological order and v hard to follow as a thread?

It's nice to be able to let someone know with a quick "grazie" that you appreciate their post.But is it just me who hovers for ages wondering whether to or not?  It's a bit like Yes/No/Don't know questions - it's always more complicated than that.The obvious answer is that I should never grazie anyone if I feel like that - but then I worry that just makes me look permanently ungrateful!My neurosis means I'm happy without the grazie button and writing a few words of appreciation when I feel moved to do so. I agree about the regions though PennyAW
