Does anybody know where you can get unroasted peanuts suitable for feeding to birds in reasonable quantities. We do buy a seed mix from our local consorzio for the seed feeder but we have a nut feeder that needs filling.

I have a 12 yr old dog, lurcher. His breathing pattern has changed when we go for our early morning walk, (at a very gentle pace). He wheezes, puffs and snorts....all very distressing.

  Gosh, all amounts quoted seem HUGE (apart from Badger). We do not have a pool and live in a smaller 2 bedroomed open planned house.  We pay Enel approx 500 euros, 300 gas and 500 wood.  Have noticed Enel prices were higher last year than the previous three years.....Do wear alot of clothes tho' !!!!!!!

 Hi Jo, Hena is our vet too...and I think a very good one. Glad you have managed to translate the form and have made a plan of action.  Good luck with your mission.  I am collecting form from Hena on Friday to give to  friends with similar problem...As I said in last e-mail they were unaware of the scheme and he is Italian !!!! Hopefully word will spread now, many thanks for posting. Angela (Mrs D)

  Hi Jo and Simon, Spoke to friend - complicated, but partner (italian) owns house in mountain village...over-run by cats...... Neither she, nor he had heard of the 'community programme' to neuter cats and was of course interested....  Unsure whereabouts you are....maybe not far from me ??? but I do have to call into vets in Sarnano Friday so will ask what 'semi-feral' constitutes then......  Sorry cant be of more help just now but I will spread the word and get back to you with any interesting info asap.
