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.

Thanks for the info SteveW. I just looked up the advisory on the HSE site and it was interesting, as there are many people using pellet systems here.

Hope it does start up again Sabina. May be worth investigating putting in a pump to send it to a store when the water level improves. Do not know how much a storage tank would cost though, plus you must make sure that the water is filtered and boiled before using.

Thats very interesting SteveW. Looks like there will not be many DIY systems installed soon, as you need the certificate, or you need someone like a "HETAS" engineer in the UK to sign it off.

How far away is the mains supply? I know someone who had a very deep well drilled with no trace of water, but then had 1.5kms of new pipe laid from the mains to the house. Expensive, yes, but would solve the problem if you had now water in the middle of winter and a tanker could not reach you.

Can never see why people go so mad on pasta, it is tasteless without a sauce and even then it is a normally mediocre tasting dish, just meant to fill you up. Suppose thats why they serve it first, so you don't complain about getting less meat!!!

Shows what rubbish some of these reporters come up with, but then it has promoted his business!! Just saw this review from the Guardian ....... agrees with you totally. http://www.guardian.co.uk/lifeandstyle/2010/mar/13/zilli-green-london-re... This was interesting as well, as he sold the London restaurants earlier this year. http://www.caterersearch.com/Articles/05/04/2012/343137/Aldo-Zilli-sells...

Suppose the next thing here will be Carbon Monoxide detectors in all houses with fires!!!!

No checks needed on a Geothermal system Steve. 2 filters to clean only, as there is no combustionable material.

We have had to do this with one Commune in Montegiorgio in Marche, but it seemed just to be for the excavations and to show system specs. I don't think there was a charge for it. Gala, the link you gave is directing to some Groupon site, as my antivirus blocked it!!
