Hello. I'm a Brit who shuttles back and forth to here and elsewhere from the UK and may or may.not be here in Argentina when you come. For information there's really nothing to beat this site; just use the search box to find what you want. There are other sites which you probably found while...

...or misleading. When I was looking into all this technical stuff about bedsheets a couple of years ago, I discovered that a lot of so-called 600 thread cotton might be better described as 'unravelled 200' thread. Take a piece of ordinary cotton thread and tease it apart between your fingers...

What a beautiful piece of writing. Thank you for finding and sharing.

Don't worry, it'll all turn out great. Look at the UK for inspiration! Investors' pockets full of cash and our rivers full of shit.

Ha! Thanks to some politicians determination to stick their noses in the trough, we might be rerunning that one very soon and - who knows? - maybe Binface will win this time? I was referencing something more recent, the fight for Keir Starmer's old seat which was retained by Labour on a reduced...

See my other post in another thread. A test letter sent from the UK with full tracking arrived in Buenos Aires about two weeks after it was sent. Another test letter, sent from the UK on July 14th but sent to Buenos Aires at the basic fee, still hasn't turned up anywhere.

At the risk of making myself appear (even more) stupid (than I usually do) are you sure these are all really text messages? I have an Apple account for my MacBook but the phone number associated with it is a Nokia. When I send SMS messages from my Nokia, iPhone users receive them in their...

Chris Moss has been writing for some time for the Telegraph, the Guardian, the Independent and the iPaper but I didn't know until now that he writes for the Sunday Times as well. He often writes pieces about Argentina and they usually come across as written by somebody who has a great affection...
