Just wondering if I am working this out right for CGT House inherited 1990 Market value at time approx = E57,000 Using multiplier X 1.503 = E85,671 Also allowable I think E1270 - married so x 2 = 2540 and cost of sale etc can be deducted say =5000 So assuming house is...

No I booked the 4 flights with a different airline so that is not an option.

Thanks for that poundhound, l know I probably input all the data right up to the end. The reason for this is I was trying to decide whether to go ahead as I wanted to book 4 x flights but thought it would be cheaper to buy them individually and was undecided whether to do this or not. At this...

At the time of booking my internet connection was not good and I think the booking may have gone through without me realising, this is the only explanation I can come up with. I genuinely did not know that I had booked this flight. I know that I definately did not receive the usual return...

United Airlines state "this ticket is non-refundable, so we cannot offer a refund, issue a travel voucher, or transfer this ticket to another person. However this ticket will remain valid in our system for one year from the original date of issue, at which time it will expire and all value...

I somehow accidently booked a flight with United Airlines. Really don't know how it happened. Had been looking at the flights alright and probably did put in credit card details and was going to book but didn't go ahead, or so I thought. Anyway somehow it must have gone through and booked. Now...

I have wondered about him using the car there and the insurance implications. The car is owned by me and he is a named driver, the insurance company ask you where the car will be mostly driven ? In reality I am proposing to insure the car and he will use it ?? Would it be better if he is...

Thanks for all the replies and after some further enquiries myself looks like it would be better to insure in Ireland. He only plans to use the car for a few months while he is outside London. So for the short term use it would seem easier not to have to register the car in Uk and get Irish...

Son wants to use Irish car in England - he lives there (student) . Anyone know if it better to get English insurance (is this possible)? Or insure it in Ireland and use it in England ? Any information appreciated.

Have been to both places and the two are really nice. Don't know if you have visited the area before but from both you cannot walk to beach. You need to take a boat or at some places you can walk - its a good 10/15 mins walk. Beaches are all fabulous, blue flag, unspoilt and uncrowded. In...

Did a home exchange about 15 years ago to North Carolina, Raleigh Durham. My memories of it are that we really enjoyed the place. At the time our children were around 9/11. They made friends with the children next door and would go to local pool etc with them. The people were very...

Thanks for replies and I think you would know by taste as Leo said. My son actually brought them back from a school trip to France where they visited Eperney in 1999 and they were forgotton !! They have been left upright but look alright - will save them for special occasion when my son is...

Have 2 bottles of Mercier 1998 champagne in back of kitchen press. Don't know much above this kind of thing - so are they ok to drink or do they have a shelf life??

Would suggest going to Disneyland in Anaheim, California instead at this time of year. The weather is much nicer there than in Florida, summer weather in California is never too hot, maybe mid 70's and no humidity also cools down in evening. having visited Disneyland in both places, my...

Thanks for all replies and advice, really appreciated. Our situation might have changed slightly as at posting yesterday only had one valuation on our home of 850/900,00. Today had another agent who valued the property at 1m to 1.1m. Now I don't understand the difference as the two are top...

Just back after a week there for first time and really liked it. Have been to Lanzarote and Tenerife too a number of times. Fuerteventura is much less developed than other islands but too me thats a good thing. Though we spend a week there we had a car and toured whole island staying in 3...

thanks for all the information - I am still researching where to stay, but did think that the Barcelo hotels seemed good. What I don't like is most of the hotels seems to do all inclusive packages which does not interest me. So am looking to rent apartment independently maybe away from main...

Thinking of going to here in early January, anyone been here and which resort /hotel would you recommend. Also considering Marbella, which I know well, but feel weather would be better in Fuerteventura. We are couple early 50's, like quiet resort and nice restaurants. Have been to Lanzarote...

Totally agree with Oldnick - Bergamo is great and the Upper Town - Citta Alta is a beautiful old walled town. Have visited Milan from there and was not all that impressed by it - very crowded and really expensive. Have stayed in these apartments www.bebbergamo.it which are quite reasonable -...
