Whilst sometimes simple words seem to pass me by, it is amazing what can be plucked out of a distant memory!.

Just a warning for everyone, a few days ago a friend was badly stung by wasps that had formed a nest inside an outside shed, he was attacked when entering and required urgent hospital treatment.

I have a very good friend coming out to Italy to spend 2 months touring, and hopefully buying a small second home here.

Trying to find my way around this new community, and am slightly better than I was, but with so many threads I am now having difficulty in remembering which one I posted in, so searching for an answer is a task in itself, any easy way to track you

 I can only comment on prices here in Marche, but lovely village houses for less than 200,000e, no room for the pool though!. A
Its too high!, we are not on town gas, but a rough estimate for us is 280e per month in the winter, and we have the heating on most of the time except during the night also use a stufa in the kitchen, where we usually are, so as the thermostat is in there it keeps an ambiant heat throughout our 3 storey, 3 bed house. Gas oven and hob , two showers a day.   Robert has fitted internal shutters, which help as we are not D/G in the main house and this really does make a difference,perhaps you are loosing to much heat through glass?. meanwhile the 4 cats keep cosy!

 Sorry Heiko, must have thought erratic=bad, but I know what you mean now. The thread did say "grumpy", nothing makes me grumpy but some things make me angry and upset, I dislike the unmanaged hunting, especially the killing of migrant birds, and I loath the casual cruelty that some ½ûÂþÌìÌÃs have with regard to animal welfare, just to clarify that I am not unaware of deeper and darker issues that this country raises for those who live here.
 You see I dont think queuing is erratic here ( in my area of Marche), everyone knows their place, be it doctors surgery or supermarket, they are always counting who is next, and our PO doesnt have any problem with stamps, am I living in a time warp here?, and foreign cheques no problem at out bank. Better not say where I live (dont tell Sarah) or will be inundated with moaning minnies, keen to find fault.
 Nothing, but then I am not a grumpy old woman. Actually its an interesting topic you raise Mr Mustard, I have noticed a large amount of grumpy old ex/pat male Brits here who moan all the time, one wonders why they chose to live in Italy if they dislike it so much, or perhaps they would be a bunch of moaning minnies wherever they lived?Anyone else noticed this trait?.......
 ohhh I got it on the medical, but now I realise its a receptical for Andrews knees.
 Sauce boat, or some strange medical device?. Its copper but the handle and the covering must be heat resistant, am I close?. ,
 I dont think anyone posted with disdain, so I am really not sure what you mean, it was taken in the spirit of fun which was what you intended. May we have more please.
