Someone here recommended him and we were happy with him. I am sure he was happy with us too, considering his fees....but then, they are standard fees, so we would have paid the same to another notaio.

It is funny ... not in the ha ha sense.

Yea, I should have said 'strange' or 'interesting'. You can see English is not my mother tongue when I am tired. Boy, I am tired, cut the damn grass at 35 degrees Celzius....

Thanks Isakat. I am going to start a new thread I think.......!

"Recommendations for both a Geometra & English speaking Notaio in the Terni province of Umbria"

[QUOTE=Isakat;10133270][QUOTE=Lorna at Vicenza;10133014] I think your English is brilliant and never would have guessed that your mother tongue is not English.

Funny is correct - it was just I that wanted to differentiate between funny/strange and funny ha ha

Let the grass grow .....

Same here: although I use funny "weird" and funny "ha ha" to differentiate. I had no idea you were not madre lingua inglese Isakat - karma to you

Cutting the grass in this heat: surely you know only mad dogs and Englishmen go out in the midday sun

Well we now know that Isakat is not a pure Englishman ............ so a mad dog perhaps?

thanks Lorna and GarbatellaMike, but you have not heard me speak with a slight accent..

Yes, I must be a mad dog to cut the grass today. I did start at 10 am, but did not finish tidying up untill 3pm! And it was the steep bank, not a flat piece where you can use the lawnmover. Even my nice neighbour told me off saying I was red in the face...

Anyway, slightly OTT, shall I put some English flags on the house for Sunday?
On the side of the neighbours I do not like

Savycat, if you have no luck finding one in Umbria, I can ask the Notaio if he would do the contract for you anyway. He does not need to see the house and you can come down to his office in Rome, it is not that faraway from Umbria.But, you must have all documents.

Whereabouts are you in Yorkshire, my DH is a true Yorkshireman.

definitely on the side of the nasty neighbours!!!!


BUT - if you're not English, why would you put up the Union Jack???

What are you? An alien? Something from Area 51? OMG - are you actually an American

No Isakat's grammar is good and she gets irony - can't be American

and I thought I was being quite bad and trying not to generalise too much ...........

I am naturalized UK citizen, so I can put the Union Jack.

No, no Anglosaxon blood in my veins and certainly not American.

Sorry you two, but have you seen the grammar and spelling of many Brits nowdays?

Anyway, I am not revealing my heritage, I need mystery around me

BITCH !!!!!!!

oh yes you are exactly right it often makes me ashamed to be a Brit
