The actual filling in online makes things easier as well as there are a lot of drop down boxes to help with answering, S

Hi Esme, There seems to be some issues from time to time and I think the visible effect of these issues to us users SUGGEST that there is little or no activity, whereby in reality there is activity but it is not 'showing' itself. (if that makes sense !) I assume things become visible once some sort of software tweak kicks in? Having said that, one can get labelled as negative if one raises it as an issue, so be careful ! S

How good is that story !! Thanks for sharing it Andrew, we tend to usually hear a lot of 'not good' stuff, in general I think people here are VERY VERY helpful, if allowed to be. S

Thanks for that, I, like a LOT of others here want a successful board full of contributions and help for others (certainly for me !). Being a very positive person I'm surprised that anyone would think of me as a 'prophet of doom' !!!!!!!!! Not me...............full stop ! I have asked a lot of questions, and hopefully provided some information for others. I take a lot out of ( and I hope contribute to) this forum and will continue to shout if I feel the need to keep it going. I also understand that there will be 'quiet' periods, but I am at times stunned to see nothing mentioned at the very time when the financial and political worlds are causing so much angst to lots of people, I get surprised that there is the odd 'lull'. Is that bad ?  Onwards !!! S

Streetview is fantastic (I've actually made it onto it whilst standing outside D.U.M. Coal in Piane de Falerone !!......) On Google maps, when you (say) get directions from 'A' to 'B'...........there is a little tiny pointer (halfway down the page on the left), entitled '3D'. Clicking on this, gives you a 'helicopter' view of your journey !! Nice to try to 'anywhere' !! S

Fillide, It's GREAT to have a supportive post here on this one.............I agree that the census is not VERY onerous, but when one's italiano lingua is not too good........it's a little tiny bit scary. Re the dates that karenr mentioned, I think (THINK) that the start/end dates are on the forms ? S
