    Vice Presidential Debate

    Makes you wonder why Biden was chosen in the first place. Was it favours returned?

    Argentina becomes first country to approve genetically modified wheat

    The agricultural and wine sectors are the two shining lights of this country. It'd be in even deeper shit without them

    Vice Presidential Debate

    Got to agree and I don't care a jot who wins Why the Democrats have Biden as their main man completely baffles me. Trump deserves to win again because Biden is so weak a candidate

    Thoughts on Córdoba????

    Never been, however a cousin of my wife is a lecturer at the University there. She has asked me to make a short video to wish the students there a happy cultural diversity day...making it this afternoon. According to Anita it's a great place to be and live.

    Shelf life of fruit and vegetables

    Not one tin of whole tomatoes in La Anonima today. My wife asked the manager why and his reply was ''they never arrived''. Also asked him why Toddy choc chip cookies have disappeared from the shelves in recent weeks. ''They never arrived'' was his reply. Why didn't they arrive? ''Don't know''...

    Argentina has world's highest COVID-19 positive rate

    I suspect the World figures regarding the virus are seriously flawed. The lockdown in Argentina has definitely been far more stricter than in the UK.

    Shelf life of fruit and vegetables

    Going to La Anonima tomorrow for the weekly shop...shall have a look. They haven't had Toddy choc chip cookies for several weeks now so you might be right and there's a supply issue.

    Why Argentina over other countries?

    That's how it's looking...although thankfully the second wave doesn't seem to be as deadly as the first. I wouldn't be surprised if we're still wearing masks on the anniversary of when we started putting them on. So Xmas and New Year celebrations could well be affected.....that'd be a bonus as...

    Why Argentina over other countries?

    My feelings for the country have definitely changed since I first came here. Back then I regularly visited as a holidaymaker which is chalk and cheese from life here as a permanent resident. Although I can't say I love it I do still like it here but find it increasingly annoying to see how it...

    Why Argentina over other countries?

    My wife is Argentine....there's no way I would be here otherwise.

    Shelf life of fruit and vegetables

    The quality of strawberries above all other fruit has definitely improved over the years and are now available all year round.When I first came here they were like no other strawberries I'd ever seen before...strange in colour and shape they were only available in summer. I've also noticed the...

    Poverty in Argentina

    It's also very common in Spain and probaby Italy as well....therein lies the problem. Here where I am every second house seems to be either abandoned or falling to bits. When I asked my wife why she says it's the archaic and complicated inheritance system here.

    Shelf life of fruit and vegetables

    Have to admit I'm not a great fruit and veg person but my wife is. Been interesting hearing her view on the subject. During our time in Glasgow she was utterly amazed at the quality and variety of fruit and veg on offer at any well known large supermarket...she was in heaven. When we came here...

    Maximo K. Poor Rich Boy..$$$$

    Seems dodgy to me....all the qualities to be President of Argentina I would say.

    Poverty in Argentina

    Yes even here I'd say poverty doesn't exist....unless you don't want to work and would rather spend what money you have on things other than essentials. Freeloaders are everywhere.
