I know this problem has been mentioned in an earlier post, but it has just reared its ugly head again. When we changed the registration of the Citroen from UK to ½ûÂþÌìÌÃ, despite there being a tow bar fitted, it was not noted on the registration.

Anyone know how to ask for the skin to be left on a pork roast, so that you can get the crackling?? Just had a beautiful loin roast from the butcher, but they cut all the skin off before it is on display, so no nice crunchy bits when roasted.

For those of you, who walk dogs around the San Ruffino tracks. There is an ½ûÂþÌìÌà Woman who sometimes has been seen there with an Alsatian, quite often not on a lead.

RonaldWhat is happening with this site as regard to the connection speed etc. I can usually go for a coffee and cigarette before anything loads.

Stalk & clean 1lb of sloes, prick all over with a darning needle and put in a bottling jar. Add 3-4oz of granulated sugar + a few drops of almond essence or a little Noyeau liqueur.

Anyone have a Canon printer that uses the BCI 24C colour cartridges? I have 5 unused compatible cartridges, as now have a Epson printer. Free to a good home, as against throwing them in the bin!!

Is there a function so that we can insert a PDF or Word document into a post? I have some information for the Energy certificate topic, but cannot see any way to insert it without copying and pasting( PDF of about 7 pages).

The last few weeks, have been walking the dog past the above park area in the evenings. The picnic/viewing area is virtually overgrown, with only the first few metres of grass having been cut, empty plastic bottles strewn around the bins etc.

Sorry Adriatica. I was not recommending a Geo system, but only thinking mainly about the excavation cost for a few hundred metres of trenching at that sort of depth. I know with our type of excavation that it is normally around 2 days of digging/backfill for 200 mtrs using a large JCB.

lay in a few hundred meters of pipe at aprox 2 meteres below ground and add a fan to draw the air in... and expel used air... the fan can be as small as a computer cooling fan... pipes need to slope away from house to let condensation roll downhill.. air sucked in will be at a pretty constant plus 12c .... not warm enough to live in but a much better starting base to add heat to than 0c... the other benefit is that in the summer its also a cooling system.. as 12c is a yearly constant... so not a suitable solution for all but its a cheap and sustainable simple heating cooling system that will air your house and pretty well eliminate all normal damp problems...whilst hopefully changing your fuel bills too and making a holiday home feel that little bit more comfortable when you arrive for a few days... The cost of that sort of excavation could be anything from 2-4 thousand Euro, plus the pipe. I think that would be prohibitive. Readings I am currently getting for ground loops @ 1.5 mtrs are circa 6C, albeit these are water based and on return recharge, so take a longer time to reheat.

Why not try one of the hire places. We bought ours from the one on the Communanza- Amandola road, that had only been used for a couple of months and got a good discount. At least it was local and could get it repaired easily if required.

If the rocket does not explode, then costs may become lower for this type of access.

Merry Christmas and a Happy & Healthy New Year to all from Amandola.

From Sebastiano's comment, this article is interesting:

Find it a little confusing that the province of Fermo, that Amandola is now in, not listed. Perhaps they have not updated their database!! Like yourself, to go through that 2nd link is a nightmare, looking for a needle  in a haystack. Lots of other usefull comments, so will be interesting to see what happens with this class action.

Could it be a losing battle though?
