I took out a personal loan at home, for me it was the best and only option. If you bring money in to buy a property you must finish transfer with the sale. When I tried I was not allowed to bring in money for a deposit, it was all or nothing.

You don't need a bank account here if you are dealing property, just the right paperwork. Ten years ago I sent back the cost of my property, in dollars to the UK. As far as I know it is the same now.

This for me is the problem with this site, mainly Americans, you do not understand us Brits. We eat pancakes at tea time. I can understand how the pan thing can confuse, our apartment is small and we try and keep things to a minimum. We have a griddle pan, that does for most things but no use...

Normally at home we would cook our own, but I promised her a holiday of sorts, three months each year in Buenos Aires. Trying desperately to avoid the cook them ourselves option. Maybe there is someone who could actually answer the question. Or tell me how we do this preparation while we are in...

I have searched the topics and done a word search all to no avail. Shrove Tuesday is rapidly approaching and I cannot find pancakes in this city, only as a desert. Does anyone know where I can get some, I may have to buy my wife a pancake pan at this rate. Please if you know, don't be...

I am a bit of a Johnny come lately to this argument. I just love the way it degenerated into a Brexit debate. For the guy who was worried about bringing in his Argentine wife, you misunderstand the Brexit debate. Britain under EU law has been overrun by astern Europeans working for gangmasters...

Thanks Jan. I am not sure if I am ready for this route yet, but I have saved your information.

Surely if you go to Colonia for money, then you will renew your Visa.

Once again Argentina shoots itself in the foot. Anyone who wants to stay for longer periods, could, before this rule, just pay a fine on exit. A nice little earner for which they have to do nothing. Now however it means longer stay tourists (of which I am one each summer) will now either leave...

Sometimes they have it in Coto, if you can bear the queues

Just thought I would Add; almost nothing I have read or been told was right when I overstayed. (I left on Wednesday 1 April 2015) You cannot even check in for your flight until you have paid. You cannot pay at migraciones. And you need about an hour extra at the airport. You need to go to...

Just pay it at the airport on your way out.

Oh the joy of a good nights sleep. Can we get the motor bikes and cars with no silencers off the road next?

Just don't get my flag upside down.

I bought peanut butter and cheese in Amsterdam airport, so it was in and baggage, again no problems

That is possibly the best reply I have seen on this site. I wish I had seen it when the builders were still on our site That should have had the quote from glasgowjohn about using the telos when you have no water.

I just watched a lady dragging her little dog along the pavement (sidewalk) It dragged its arse along a full block. Do locals not realise that this is a sign of worms? At the corner she stopped and her dog socialised with another dog, that will now probably also have worms. She carried no poop...

I think perhaps, you should all read "The Pale Blue Dot" by Carl Segan. Hopefully, eventually, we will all have to co-operate in space. Just maybe the future of our species lies there.

Yes I know the go to the cemeteries, but how do they get there. With an estimated population of 2.9 million and a life expectancy of 70 years,that means that someone's dying every 5.5 minutes. (yes I know, and he is not very happy about it). So why do I never see a hearse. You would think that...

Would H982 MAL mean anything to anyone in the UK? Even to vets? I think not. (I don't know if the number exists)
