Just in case you are wondering I asked Ronald if he could keep the BBQ post on the main Le Marche section at the top of the page which he has just done - felt it was getting rather lost down the bottom and soon would have ended up on Page 2 (well

Jesse at 8 months - growing up so fast now. She is never far from her new boyfriend's side and consequently had to have a little operation so we don't have a new generation of Sully's Pups!

Well the Sully's Pups group is now live so we hope to see everyone here again and lots more photos!!!

One day a florist goes to a barber for a haircut. After the cut he  asked about his bill and the barber replies, 'I cannot accept money  from you. I'm doing community service this week.' The florist was  pleased and left the shop.

Its is one of our regular walks as you know, so thanks for the information and really hope the greyhound recovers quickly, they are such lovely dogs. Dread to think who would come off worse in a fight though, Jessie or the alsatian.

Afraid it is true Arty - see here: http://www.italymag.co.uk/community/post/goodbye-italymag However we are safe here as far as we can tell and there may be publications every so often. Its a shame but obviously they know what is best! PS Why does your little picture keep changing?

Well we finally got to speak to someone in charge at Goldengas after 2 days of trying and we threatened to change companies and asked them to come and take the bombola out and guess what....... the price suddenly dropped from 92c to 65c just like that - so worth a try for anyone in a similar situaton to ourselves. We have placed an order this time with them, but due to their underhand way of dealing with the price per litre, will hopefully change to either Pegas or Total next time Thanks to everyone for your help and rememeber its definitely worth bartering!!!!

Thanks David - been on phone all morning and not  got anywhere so far with Pegas or Total - been on hold for over an hour!!!! and Total can't give us a price. Maybe your excellent language skills would do the trick! Just going to phone Goldengas and try and get a bit threatening - will keep you informed........ Alan - good idea - will ask!

Thanks J & DJ - we did fill out the forms and do get the discount and that is the price with the discount!!!! well that is what Goldengas have told us. D - Do you think we would have to have the bombolla ripped out and a new one put in if we changed to say Pegusus - we ahve had the old contract for over 6 years (or could they possibly use the same one). Will try and phone on Monday, but you know what our Italian is like! Thanks for all your help.

Thanks very much Sebastiano and Fred and Cath - it seems like we are paying way too much again! Not sure how we go about changing contracts - it is at least 6 years old and I guess would be very messy if the bombola had to be ripped out and a new one installed if we were to change companies?

Hi - I can't put anything on my face other than water  but I managed to buy some home made cinnamon soap from a local festa which apparently has anti bacteriological properties and so far so good  - hope this helps!

We too have found that the pages of IMC load much slower today than usual and we have fairly fast broadband here even though we are in the countryside.  All other website we visited load at the usual speed, so not sure what has changed here? Like Angie, our connection goes down if a storm is on its way, but with the beautiful weather we have been having recently, I don't think this is the issue.  Any one else having similar problems?
