Some people do not seem to suffer the consequences of a world crisis. A Chinese gambling magnate has just paid US$ 330,000 for two white truffles, the largest one from Tuscany and the other one from Molise, at a charity auction.

Hi! My youngest daughter, Natalia, helps as a volunteer in Save a Bunny San Francisco. They have at present more than 80 bunnies in the refuge and little or no money.

Just a reminder that the Iris Gardens in Florence will be open this year between the 24th of April and the 20th of May. A magnificent collection with over 2,500 varieties.

Once upon a time... in the Old, defunct Forum (God bless its soul!), we had a very funny thread on Forum Characters. I found the link that shows those characters and it is still very appropriate for the Community. So here you are....

Winter is almost here and this time of the year is not a favourite season for gardeners.

Mimosa, I hope that you will not mind if I also say "Hi" to an "oldie" from the Forum, Daviduno. Good to see you here, David.
Alma, my advice would be to write down your password in an address book. I did that!
Hi Mimosa and welcome. We look forward to hearing more from you. After 3 years living in Italy you will have plenty to contribute.
I have always been hopeless at quizzes, that is why I never participate in them; however, I am putting 10 pounds in the kitty as a fine for being incompetent. :)
Helen, good to see you here. Don't worry, it takes a bit of time to get used but we will all make it. :)
Good to see you here.
I agree that it takes some time to get used to this; however,I have started to notice a definite improvement. It is just a bit of practice what is needed.
I haven't had a drink, my hand is very steady and I get the same results. Gremlins in the system or a conspiracy.....
Although caustic soda is used, generally in weak solutions, I would be a bit worried about using it. Salt and also vinegar have been used for weed control. Still, I would prefer just plain boiling water, so start planning for the camp fire.
Gromit, it would be better to use a thermos flask, but make sure it keeps the right temperature. Otherwise, have a camp fire or one of those camping burners with a kettle boiling on site. Never run with a kettle full of boiling water. As for Caustic Soda.... you are really dangerous.... :O
