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.

Trouble with RAI Flip, is as it's ½ûÂþÌìÌÃ, the commentators can't stop getting excited, plus you get all the adverts. Will stick with the free BBC feeds.
Used her for over 5 years now. Sure you haven't tried to use her as your dentist?
Surgery 0733 658374 Mobile Hena: 347 9364256 Mobile Daniel: 338 2760107 Directions: Coming from Amandola, 2nd turn off after the petrol station, towards the post office and market area. Turn left before the post office, first right and then left again. Surgery is in a new block with apartments. Closed normally on Monday.
Henna in Sarnano is the one we use for ours, speaks English, as does her partner, although not as well. Will also write prescriptions out in English so you can order online, as cheaper in the UK.
Suggest you get your satellite dish pointed to Eutelsat @28.5E. You will then pick up the BBC red button feeds. Watched all the 6 Nations live this year, plus other sports.
From the old forum Angie:
Hunting season from beginning of Sept to Feb/March. "Rats" is just my name for the dogs, as most are handbag size!! Prefer larger breeds. Saying that, we found a English Setter, which had run away from the hunters. Thought initially that it was a puppy, but it was 6 yrs old, underfed, teeth worn from trying to bite through its' wire cage. 19kg when we found him (by the Lake), now 26kg.
Agree that it is probably a grass seed at this time of year. Also watch out for them getting in the ears!!
You will probably be ok around the Lago San Ruffino tracks, but go from the Scheggia/Friano end. There are people who exersize their dogs there, but as long as yours are not aggressive, then there should not be a problem. When the hunting seaon begins though, the hunters "rats" will be free down there and may get a little annoying, although saying that they soon called them back when confronted with a Marremano, so the Ridgeback will help as well!!!
We had a 400 yr old cottage also with oak beams, but they were probably well seasoned, as they did not need replacing for the renovation. Has just gone up for sale again, as presume the person who won it on the Daily Mail competition did not like the insurance costs!!! Anyway, new chestnut beams/flooring do shrink as well as crack. We have found the battiscopia tiles opening from the floor by a few millimetres, which is a real pain to re-grout. If had known that would happen, would not have had them for a few years.
