Surprised that there are three worse :D

You should learn to cabeceo. Many who come with partners split up in the milongas, in order to get more dances with different people. Don't be intimidated, often the ladies are not much more than beginners themselves, even the ones that are great dances are grateful for a dance.

The list is almost endless, but here are some of my recomendations: Nuevo Chique Tuesday and Thursday 16:00- 23:00 San Jose 224 1º El Arranque Monday,Tuesday, and Thursday 15:00- 22:00 Bartolome Mitre 1759 and Saturday 15:00- 21:00 These are the places that seem to have a bit of room for the...

Polar Bear or Brown Bear? And don't Bears have paws?

I have a friend who has been doing the visa run since 2001. Look! most people who do this are yanquis, you get paid in Dollars, the Argentine government wants Dollars, so why oh why would they want to stop you being here? When the Guy at the eduana complains, do as they do; smile, shrug your...

Not really an answer I'm afraid. You will find that the Argentine telephone companies bill you no matter what, if you call out and if someone calls you internationally. There is an answer however, have you thought of calling from a locotorio? the calls are so cheap that you will probably not...

Buenos Aires is awash with dance studios. You can hire rooms by the hour. Normal use is, of course, tango, but I doubt they will be too worried about Yoga. I am not in BaAs at the moment, but I will make some enquiries. Or, you could try taking a private tango class with some one and asking...

Buy your 24 carat gold on Ebay in the UK, http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/PAMP-SUISSE-1g-Fine-Gold-Bullion-Bar-999-9-24-carat-Brand-New-Sealed-/190595104639?pt=UK_Coins_Bullion_Bars_SM&hash=item2c605a7f7f I doubt that the Argentine web will allow you to open this, but basically it is 1g bars of 24...

I presume you mean Brasillian Samba. In Argentina it is something quite different Samba or Zamba is a folk dance. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-WNEh6r00SU&feature=related

I see Steve Jobs has managed the impossible. Something even Jamie Oliver could not do. He put an apple in every fat kids bedroom.

Sounds about right to me. I fly from the UK about twice a year. If you are looking for a cheeper price it may pay you to alter the time you fly. Mid week is always cheeper and if you can avoid the school holidays it knocks a tremendous amount off. As an example I moved my hoildays by a fortnight...

Kelloggs had a factory in Pilar, but it was closed when the production costs got too high. The peso pegged to the dollar meant that they could not afford the wages. Ironic when you think what happened twelve months later. Now the nearest plant is in Brazil, and with Argentina blocking imports...

It was cancelled last Sunday because of the hail. BTW we take the 94 from Guardia Vieja.

So who says they hold any water in the UK. At least in Argentina the split is equal, under UK law the judge decides. I know a lot of divorcees (Wrexham is the UK capitol of divorce, look it up), and almost ivariably the wife gets the bigger share. No one has told my wife yet, that is why we...

This make Christina a more valid head of Government than David Cameron. Hmmmmmmmm

Most of the rioters are not black. If we want to stereo type: African blacks and English white trash are the main culprits. Asians are almost non existant, because they own (built up by hard work) the businesses that are being trashed.. The main cause (I believe) is complete lack of discipline...

For the true value of gold read Making Money by Terry Pratchett. You will never look at banking in the same way again.

Quilmes Negra, delicious.

I have said this before "note the name of the taxi company and publish it here" that way we all know the ones to avoid,
