Here in Umbria the weather is perfection and we can just manage an early supper outside.

Now here's a warm weather MONEY SAVING TIP. It took me several years living here to cotton on to this. Turn down the spin speed on your washing machine and save a little money on the electricity bill. 600 rpm is plenty fast enough and it's so warm outside the washing dries quickly.

Well I have been here in Barga since 22nd March and apart from a couple of thunderstorms it has been absolutely glorious. I am actually now praying for rain to quench my new lawn, bay hedge and plants.

Welcome back - how did the move go?

Great News - I hope it's the sun is shining same further up the valley too!

Bay hedging sounds divine - can you PM me the supplier or pop it on the Northern Tuscany Group or Gardening?

Grazie
