Beware, Italian Banks charge for everything ! We used to transfer cash in Euros to our Italian account and the bank would open up a holding account to process the transaction and then charge us a large percentage for doing so. The best value that I have found is Banco Posta which charges only about E40 per annum.

 We have a wooden framed pool that was installed 8 years ago as an optional "above ground" pool but has since had the area around it built up so is now below ground. We had a local english builder install it but it was purchased from a company called Euroform Srl at Capannori (Lucca). The website was www.Countrypool.it.  Jerry

Also recommend Euromanandvan@live.com. They have brought furniture out to us in the past ranging from a half van laod to just a flat pack. They have just taken a full load back to the UK for friends of ours. We have a part load waiting for them here (near to Bagni) as they are very accomodating people try them. Jerry
