Am I right that CGT on the sale of a property is only payable if the property is sold within 5 years of purchase AND another property isn't being bought? Also, the CGT amount is 40% of the profit made only? S

I'd never dreamt of that (and with the greatest respect I also couldn't/wouldn't be bothered), but well done you. This January 30th (2011), on my way to the UK, I just went through the 'border' pulled over, and paid my (30-ish euros) and went on my way. I THOUGHT that my current sticker was valid until December 31st 2011, but I'm hearing that it could be valid until the END of January 2012. I have a particular interest in the actual dates as I am going to Bavaria for Christmas and New year this year so therefore I was thinking that I would be able to go via Switzerland on the way THERE (Dec 6th ish), but my vignette would NOT be valid on the way BACK (Jan 6th ish) ?

You get great info about the flight etc of each plane ! S
Hi Penny, I can FULLY understand your comments and would agree with pretty much everything you have said; We are retired (very early!) and generally protected from rising prices, but we both cannot understand how people who HAVE to work can manage here in Le Marche. Having said that, I'm not sure that the Ligurian coast will be any cheaper ? (We LOVE Santa Margherita Ligure by the way ).............. Good Luck, S

One of our favourite pastimes is having breakfast (or lunch), (or drinks !) by the pool and watching the swallows dipping and diving ( I assume for a drink ?) into the pool. A sight to behold indeed ! They're VERY good and almost acrobatic flyers(or is it fliers ?) aren't they ? S And by the way..........I know this was mentioned earlier..............the fireflies are performing VERY well in the evening at the mo !!
