Benvenuto su Puglia Posse!

Puglia Posse is a forum mainly dedicated to this most sub-mediterranean region of Italy, Puglia or Apulia; but not only. For those of us with a strong passion for this rich and colourful territory; most probably have an equally strong fondness for all things Italian! There is a wealth of knowledge to be found in this forum. Our members have extensive experience and are more than willing and equally enthused to share their knowledge with new visitors and homeowners to the area. You need to register in order to obtain full access, make any postings and contribute yourself. Why not start with a small introduction about you and your family, telling us why Puglia is for you?

Grazie!

Angela  : (11 May 2012 - 12:14 PM) The other day I read a posting by 'Olive' about an empty van going back to the UK. We are not moving back but trying to declutter and want to send some stuff back - a number of boxes with china etc, no big furniture. Can Olive get in touch with me via this forum if the offer is still on? We fly back Sunday week 20 May but can leave everything packed in our garage 1 minute's walk from main Piazza and someone can let driver in if we've already left. To contact me see our website www.devlinostuni.co.uk
Angela  : (11 May 2012 - 12:10 PM) Hi all
Jacqui  : (03 May 2012 - 04:39 PM) If anyone is just moving to Puglia and they have any empty removal boxes they want to get rid of, I would be very grateful of them for our move back to England.
Admin - Colleen  : (27 April 2012 - 11:38 AM) You can take the train from Ostuni via Bari into Rome central. See website www.trenitalia.it
Jacqui  : (24 April 2012 - 08:50 AM) Lola and Sweep desperately need a new home. Further details in Animal Magic Forum.

Digger  : (09 April 2012 - 08:32 PM) I bought 2 1000 litre tanks in Casalini from a builders yard opposite the water filling station. Made by Telcom in Ostuni - on the industrial estate near the train station. May be possible to buy direct?
Admin - Colleen  : (09 April 2012 - 06:19 PM) Try zaccharia near our office in cisternino. I bought one, 5000 litres for just short of 500 euro. We are on via fasano and they are just behind us near dimeglio supermarket.
NANDA PAUL  : (09 April 2012 - 04:25 PM) Hi does anyone know where we can get a watertank from locally we are close to Casalini / Cesternino or has anyone got a tank they are looking to sell about 2000 litres will be good.
JuliaS  : (08 April 2012 - 07:56 PM) If you are passing a car on the dual carriageway(Particularly between Auchan and Latiano) and hear something hit the side of your car and then the other car gets you to pull over. It's probably a scam. The guy will point out a dent in his car (which he has already put there) and say you did it. He will ask for 100 euros. The kid in the back of his car does something to scratch your car as you pass. After trying it on us twice, we asked around and have found a number of locals he has done it too aswell.
sunshineorange  : (26 March 2012 - 01:20 PM) driving back to uk end of april,empty car and maybe trailer ,just want to cover some of the cost .anyone want anything taken back ,i'm on the south coast.???
sunshineorange  : (26 March 2012 - 01:19 PM) hi
Admin - Colleen  : (20 March 2012 - 09:21 PM) I would suggest you consult marco magaraggia for advice as it will not be straight forward. Try this link. http://www.studioleg...a.it/index.html
Chris J  : (20 March 2012 - 05:03 PM) A friend who's wife has died, has a house in Ostuni in joint names. Does anyone know the procedure for changing the ownership into his sole name.
