Just a warning for everyone, a few days ago a friend was badly stung by wasps that had formed a nest inside an outside shed, he was attacked when entering and required urgent hospital treatment.

I have a very good friend coming out to Italy to spend 2 months touring, and hopefully buying a small second home here.

Trying to find my way around this new community, and am slightly better than I was, but with so many threads I am now having difficulty in remembering which one I posted in, so searching for an answer is a task in itself, any easy way to track you

Hurrah Joy at last....I have been out all day as well!. What Gala says is interesting about niche markets, we know people who have done this via their olive oil and bye products, and it is very popular with the jaded English market for the "authentic" Italian product, which still has a snob value, we all laughed at hug an olive tree, but when I saw it featured in Homes and Gardens as the ultimate Christmas present we had to acknowledge it worked. What I think is Italians produce fantastic produce and goods but the marketing is sometimes rubbish, if they get that right...the skys the limit. BTW the hat that Kate wore for the cruise down the Thames was made in the next village to us...so someone is getting it right!.

Great list...must remember the snow shovel this year. I would add to it watch the forecast, listen to the neighbours and also stock up on all medications.....took me 3 weeks to get out and up to the village last winter.

Why should you?...EU sharing of banking information when they think a possible fraud has been commited.

I dont think the fact that the season is ending (for some) has any bearing, it seems from the article that the Italian authorities have had access to UK bank accounts, which we have always been aware of.
