Appears there is a virus originally found earlier this year, that many AV companies and firewalls have had problems stopping. Zonealarm free firewall does not stop it, although the full version now does.

This looks like another new tax that has just been introduced here. On each prescription item, you have to pay 21 cents, even if the medication previously was free.

Does anybody have any recipes for cooking black truffles. We had one today, cooked in an omelette in the French style, but would like to know if anyone has used them with pork, as still have another 2 to use up before they go off.

If you do not have the earth wire, then it is adviseable to get one installed. It should be a low cost fitting, as only a single cable. Some conduit down the outside wall to a spike in the ground, so very little disruption.
Would certainly not normally use a washing machine on a unearthed supply. unless it was double insulated. You could make the whole water supply live and it has happened, through a earthing fault. RCD would possibly cut it off quickly, but may get a shock before
There should be a earth wire from the fuse box. You may need to open it up after switching it off to check. Look at the feed in to the fuse box to see if there is a green/green-yellow earth into the input supply. If you remove the wall socket cover you should also be able to see if that has a earth wire as well. Not a very good answer Penny if the appliance is not earth isolated, you could be encouraging them to electrocute themselves!!!
Best Western are a good hotel group, usually if I go to a meeting that is the hotel I am booked into, great service.
Most calculations that we consider are based on a whole house heating module, at a temperature of 20C internal. With underfloor heating, this could be reduced down to 19C due to the different heating effect, but that is purely a matter of personal choice. Underfloor, is the most economical system as water temps do not have to be very high at around 35C, whereas a radiator system needs at least 50C. A heat pump is designed to run at 100% of the heating need, but you can reduce it to 70% of the heating requirement. Simple terms... house size 100 sq mtrs close off 30 sq mtrs and only heat 70 sq mtrs. We heat all 120 sq mtrs here and at the moment the temperature is set @ 18.5C which is comfortable. The maximum that we have ever used with the underfloor is 21C. Hope that answers your question.
Would be about my calculation as well Sagraiasolar, unless there is gas involved as well. We have a installation quite close to you in a 400 sq mtr, fairly modern house, with 2x 17Kw Gshp, running rads. What would the wood heating equivalent be for the 34Kwh required? This was a retrofit by the way.
Sorry Kensington2 if you took offence It is a lot of wood, but for 500 sq mtrs, the stoves will probably soon get through it. Knew a guy with a 360 sq mtr house who got through 150 quintale a year, plus about 3000 euro of lpg.
20 years supply .......... will be well seasoned!!!
Any input is always welcome.
No problem, next time I hear of something going on there that may be interesting, will let you know. They had one about the Sibillini witch, but it was all in Italian, so could not follow it. Eros, at the cheese shop I have mentioned before, is quite involved in these presentations, as is Guissepe from the restaurant at San Ruffino.
