    Robbed In Epuyen, Theives Caught Then Released, Even Though

    I don't think that it would have not made a difference.You could have been in the shower or sleeping also. She's obviously angry and looking to vent. If it wasn't for the the robbery, then she would have been happy that you thought to treat her to bring facturas. Powerless to accuse her...

    Robbed In Epuyen, Theives Caught Then Released, Even Though

    @NobodySpecial - Since your first appearance on this forum I got a sense of a guy just seeking a tranquil place to settle down and do your own thing. I'm sorry that you and your family have had to be exposed to this misery, then be further humiliated by those that claim to protect the interest...

    Thus Spoke Kristina....""

    Well that's what peaks my curiosity, what do real people think when you are face to face. The social-internet has a lot of questionable personas, so I don't count on the memes they post and articles they promote to point fingers at the Macri administration. Speaking casually with people from the...

    Thus Spoke Kristina....""

    tal cual - as they say I find myslef speaking casually with many middle aged and older folks in working-class neighborhoods and small businesses and they express much resentment to the KULT. They may not be hard-core Macri supporters, but the atmosphere of "thank God the K's are out" is...

    Tile Cutter

    Easy rents those out. Also Arco , Massa, For 3 tiles, a good glass cutter and a straight edge should do the job, although I've not found a decent glass cutter here yet.

    Respect

    As a former colleague of mine described the "Argentine Modus Operandi" to folks visiting from the US: "Argentines are opportunists". Openly shameless, short-sighted, callous. I don't understand it in the form it takes here; although I'm sure the same goes on even in the developed nations; just...

    Where Can I Buy Brown Sauce From? Hp Or Similar As In Uk

    Besides Barrio Chino, Jumbo always seemed to have HP in the imported foods area. @GMXam molasses can be found in dieteticas (the brand I found is called Melaza El Trebol, 500 gram jars with Yellow label with burgundy lettering). I've made some great BBQ sauce with it.

    It Happened To Me. Visa Entry Problem.

WHY? (with a look on their face - as if...

    New Electric Bill Arrived: And The Total Is....

    And to keep that room at a constant temperature for longer periods, some insulation is required, properly fitted double-paned windows wouldn't hurt either... but we all know that that's next to impossible to find. Builders don't factor in R-values or heating/cooling costs; another one of those...

    Any Expat Scientology Meet Ups In Ba?

    Anyone Else Sin Luz?!

    I lost power on Thursday for 4-5 hours, only my block was affected, (although on Friday and Saturday morning I noticed that many parts of V. del Parque were without stoplights and businesses were running on generators. Unfortunately this is now quite common for this area). Friday after the...

    Good News For Anyone Receiving International Packages!

    Kind of a 'shit or get off the pot' situation as far as I see it. If they want to compete with the 1st world they have to stop thinking like the 3rd world. Much of the laughable stuff that is available to national consumers (and I'm excluding possibly some actually decent products that go...

    Cheddar

    errrr. cracker barrel: the cheese that was always available 'cuz the good stuff was sold out, and that's what was left. not a fan, but in a pinch it's still miles ahead of the local cheddar farce. I've found passable mild versions in past years - rarely - but never anything really good and...

    Monotributo Vs. Small Company

    Is that right though? My wife is a psychologist > monotributista and pays the flat monthly rate whether she earns anything or not. And isn't monotributista a category for licensed professional services as opposed to a PYME category?

    Red De Balcon - Balcony Fall Protection For Kids

    I got a net from La Casa Segura for about 6000 pesos (for roughly 4X1.5M area) and did the installation myself. I measured the area I needed to fill and went to their shop to see what meshes they had. They completed my order in under a week with all the parts I ordered for my needs (keeping...

    Has It Always Been So Bad?

    The common denominator obvious isn't it? Big cities. They will all share the same problems, with the symptoms being better or worse to some degree. Some may be able to deal with some aspects and bandage some issues but none are without this 'disease'.
