    Milei meeting with Elon Musk

    Neo-liberals talking up their poster boys who would have thought it? Certainly vaca muerta has the potential to be a very good earner for Argentina, but Operators and Oilfield Service companies have to take a very big bet on Argentina's future and I'm not sure they're willing to.

    Milei meeting with Elon Musk

    Apparently foreign businesses that remained in Argentina are more interested in getting their money out and actually making a bit of money than piling new capital into a historically risky market. Or at least that’s what’s happening in the oilfield sector from what I hear.

    How much did your meal cost?

    $25 USD for a Nando’s in Saudi Arabia was my last meal. Between 13 and 18 bucks for a beer in Dubai. Argentina still cheap 😀

    Tough Times For Argentine Factories As Consumers Penny-pinch

    I bought some glasses in Jumbo the other day for $1 each. You have to shop around a bit or the viveza criolla will get you.

    Good, strong, English-style tea, anyone?

    No, you can find Twinings occasionally at extortionate prices. I think Virgen Islands is one of the “strongest” that you’ll get from a supermarket There’s also some different tea blends from New Garden that might fit the bill also very expensive. Also Tealosophy in Palermo but again rather dear.

    Is the Milei "Transformation" Failing Already?

    There are too many vested interests in maintaining the status quo. Peronism will return in a slightly different form and the land owning elite will go back to having cheap government subsided labour. Argentina’s mineral/agricultural riches will continue to be exported, without adding any...

    Where to Buy Roast Beef

    In Britain we roast all types of cuts which could be called roast beef. They’re all around the area of peceto, cuadrada, cuadril. Best cut for me for roasting is fore rib, which is Bife ancho with the bone and the bit of gristle cut out I believe.
