But Gala I don't think the Vatican would stump up if I put a claim in against St Emygdius for 'Breach of Promise' if my roof colapsed. So I'll keep my faith in Lloyds of London all the same. Thanks for the prayers though ... just hope it works.

And again last night 3.1 this time, but same area; this doesn't look good as they had several in the months leading up to the biggy in Aguila. Where did I put that insurance policy !!!!

What rubbish some people write about Italy. Most of that must be hearsay, by someone who doesn't pay taxes; as I think Italy's tax system is quite fair for new business (if you have a decent Comercialista) and as to checking  internet buying ...well really. Like I say Italy would be better off without the moaners, and expats who are determined to 'get away' with things like taxes and the like.

Spud, I think you will only truly know if you  have to make a claim; unfortunately this dilemma has been ongoing for years and no one (including the Insurance companies) has a definitive answer. in Bocca Lupo !!

Actually Neil (sorry to be a Pedant) but CO2 will kill you just as sure as CO, but it's all a question of concentrations (ppm) of both.

TBH Masca, in practice I think no one pays any attenttion to that, I know several UK reg cars that have been driving around here for 4-5 years now and even our local Police who know this don't give a monkey's.

Masca, I think that refers to a brand New vehicle that will then be permanently exported (along with Registration in another EU country) to another country. i.e. your vehicle must be at least that old before you can re-register in another country.

Masca, I know Benabbio but unless your house is a ruin already it should be OK. The tremor was quite violent (enough to shake power cables and TV aerials)  but thankfully short we felt only one small aftershock, we had just the other day finished decorating and filling in cracks in some walls, but it has opened up a few more now; but as our house is 600+ years old it has probably seen worse.
