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 ½ûÂþÌìÌà Chef Aldo Zilli, as being one of the first to introduce "proper" ½ûÂþÌìÌà food into London.There were many restaurants in London, in the 70's prior to him arriving.One, San Frediano,
Hope nobody has booked flights with this airline in Italy
Didn't take long, before it started. Non ½ûÂþÌìÌà 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 ½ûÂþÌìÌà B&B's to ½ûÂþÌìÌà ones in Marche. I will not name any, but to be honest, you are better staying in ½ûÂþÌìÌà establishments.

Don't know how well this will work, but have just experimented with the image, if you cannot get a copy. Right click on the pic and then save as a JPEG. I used ACDSee photo manager and could enlarge with no major picture loss. I went to 15x23 inches, so it is possible you could save to a memory stick and then get a local photoshop to print it out poster size.
Breathalyser law effective from today in France!!!
Was hoping for a good crop of walnuts this year for pickling, but very few on the tree. The peach trees still need some rain. The grape vine on the front of the house has gone mad again this year, but unfortunately, we have to keep cutting off the lower bunches to stop the dogs from eating them as they are toxic.
Thanks AndyT, will keep trying to get them right.

Cannot stand football, as it is played by a load of overated, overpaid prima donnas. Rather watch a good game of rugby.
Trying to get variety again this year, so hope all goes to plan. Couple of tomato plants, plum and cherry type. Half a dozen green bean plants Courgette 1 normal and 1 round. Baby sweet corn. Swedes, Kohlrabi and Turnips. All started from individual seed trays this yearand all growing well at the moment. Thai Bird chillies and Pea Aubergines. MangeTout trying again, starting in pots first, then going to transplant with lots of shade Parsnips again in individual seed trays, probably replant into pots to develop prior to going into the ground. Lemon Grass. (Rather late this year planting, but still have a good supply from 2010 in the freezer. Plus the norms, Basil, Mint, Chives, Rosemary, Sage. Â
Thinking Back. We have a very nice ½ûÂþÌìÌà guy (retired), living near to us. We were sorting out the orto, and he rotovated it for a few euro. He saw our English fork, we had been using to dig the ground and said how good he thought it was, as there was no equivalent here. I ordered one from Amazon as a gift for him and he was so pleased and even wanted to pay for it. Anyway, some time later, we were discussing truffles. A few days later, he turned up with a very large white truffle, as our gift from him. He and his brother also cut down a very large Oak tree in the garden,which we had permission for from the Commune. Gave them all the wood as had no need for it here, which was 2 tractor trailers full. No cost to us, so it does work.
Use cous cous instead of pasta in the summer. Make a Tabouleh salad with it. Far better for your health and waistline than pasta!!
What were your calculations Bunterboy?
