Send a question for the reader mail column
The mail column exists for the questions that do not fit neatly into a single guide. If you are weighing up a levy schedule, wondering how often a gardener should come, or trying to work out transport in a neighbourhood you have just moved into, that is exactly the kind of thing worth writing in about.
Useful questions tend to include a little context: the province you live in, whether you are still in the family home or already moved, and what you have already tried. You do not need to have the answer worked out. A clear description of the situation is enough for us to take it further.
Questions about downsizing, village levies, garden and home upkeep, staying in touch with family abroad, household paperwork and settling into a new neighbourhood are all welcome. Selected questions may appear in a future column, and you can say whether you are happy for yours to be published.
