We now have a new addition to the family here, a orphaned leveret. It is only about 8 days old now, but seems to be doing quite well and putting on weight. Feeding it a kitten milk mixture. Anyone else had experience of bringing them up??

Italymag's latest post has just amused us here, about the Italian Chef Aldo Zilli, as being one of the first to introduce "proper" Italian food into London.There were many restaurants in London, in the 70's prior to him arriving.One, San Frediano,

Didn't take long, before it started. Non Italian B&B!!! From a TripAdvisor commentBreakfast on the patio was excellent- even including bacon and eggs!

Wonder if anyone having the same problems:1. You read a post logged in, then refresh and then it tells you that you have x number of unread posts, even though you have read all.

Because it was raining today, thought to do some price comparisons re non Italian B&B's to Italian ones in Marche. I will not name any, but to be honest, you are better staying in Italian establishments.

Our house was fairly badly damaged in the earthquakes as well. Our insurance company has been excellent. They supplied a temporary accomodation unit, plus a new heat pump as the other was damaged. Renewal was due in May and came through with no problem, although the premium had increased, which we expected.Repairs start on the house within the next weeks and hopefully completed by the new year.Perhaps worth getting in touch with them.Intasure.com

Car tax is for the whole year, not by month.If you sell or give away the car, then you have to do a registration change, and the other person pays for that.http://www.calcolaonline.com/controllo-del-pagamento-bollo.htm?ref:iaconet

I do not know about the water filtration, but you could use the borehole for a ground source type heat pump. There may be local restrictions though, depending on whether it is sealed or a discharge type.

Maybe, have a look at the Ariston Nuos for your domestic hot water. It is a air source unit that can be wall mounted.www.ariston.comNot knowing about how large the house is, you could use air/air inverters on each floor for heating, or alternatively, something like the new Airx air/water heat pump. This would require a buffer tank as you have radiators.

You have no PM facility on this site, so if you post a email address it is open to every spammer etc. to see.I admit I will never put my open email on here, as there is enough spam that comes in the postings, with virtually no moderation.

This thread went to bed some time ago, but thought it may be a good time to revisit it again.Italian drivers are pretty much incompetent with anything.GJ who I think is in her mid 20's, says we should all be taking the italian driving test. My wife was learning to drive in a Masserati Quatroporto a little younger than her. Her later cars were Jaguar E type, ( engine and wheels stolen in Milan ), Austin Healy 3000, plus a few ferraris and big mercs, Astons etc, as her father was sales director of Mercedes Park Lane in London.My life in the early days, was converting american cars to go faster, as we had a few American bases nearby.

You will have very little chance of finding things like lemon grass here, coriander and tarragon maybe. Order the seeds online, like I do and grow your own.http://www.nickys-nursery.co.uk/garden-shop/seeds/As to No2 I have no idea

Normal Italian driving. Thankfully nobody was seriously injured. The organisers should have been prosecuted for allowing spectators to sit on the virtual exit to a 90 degree bend. In my years of road rallies I have never seen such stupidity, but then, this is Italy.http://www.abc.net.au/news/2014-10-07/spectators-narrowly-escape-tumbling-car-italy-jolly-rally/5794504
