Have you tried asking KEL Edicions (https://www.kelediciones.com/) to order them for you? You might have to call into one of their shops and actually ask someone to do this but it is worth a try.

The only mail that ever arrives here is official post (which I don't think uses CA anyway) and signed for documents. Stuff we send overseas never gets there. Stuff from overseas never arrives here. Ordinary post used to be bad but used to arrive eventually in either direction, now... ...nothing...

If you come from the UK(largest greeting card market in the world, by population) or the USA(2nd largest) it can come as a surprise to find that other cultures just aren't that into sending cards. Maybe having/not having an effective, cheap postal service is something to do with it? There used...

All these hygiene arguments are just a load of crap: I've flushed out the original deposit to the US Patent Office and the diagram clearly shows which way the paper ought to hang... ...outwards. Check out US465588A

AIUI goes something like this: In Ireland and also the UK, fresh milk is heated below its boiling point (about 75-80°C for about 15 seconds) to pasteurise it. Here, long life milk is ultra heat treated at about 135°C for a few seconds and the product called "fresh milk" goes through exactly the...

Good advice. Also remember that whatever your residency status, public hospitals will treat anyone.

In the market in my English town I buy a pack of 36 double ply rolls for £6/$8 - sorry about that ;-) To buy toilet paper here you need to shop around - a lot - and a masters degree in applied mathematics wouldn't go amiss either, what with buy 2 get 1 for 75% type offers and varying roll...

Yes, @gringoexpress, and a very clear guide it is too. Several others have written excellent guides to other aspects of life here so the message to anybody reading this is:- Before you ask something that's already been asked over and over, USE THE SEARCH FUNCTION ON THIS SITE! What you want to...

Well, for what it's worth, I've never lived there but after my son passed through then told me I really ought to visit, I spent a little time there and loved it. Compared to Buenos Aires it's tiny: about the same population as only Comuna 12 but spread out over ten to fifteen times the area with...

48 hours later the Sube top up at our station is still closed. Has anybody anywhere been able to top up over the past 48-72hrs?

I didn't see the pictures before but to me it looks like an internal roller blind and you will likely find it cheaper and easier to buy the whole thing from Easy or Sodimac than to fiddle with broken parts. If the length/colour/material needs to match, just put the old fabric on the new drum. It...

Yeah. But he's absolutely ace at trading in bicycles!

I wouldn't have expected INCAA to turn a profit because I wouldn't have thought that was its purpose. It provides seed money that returns to the economy in many ways, multiplied many times. For example the UK equivalent - 25% tax break for films made in Britain stimulated over US$30billion in...

Never mind registration, today neither of our local railway stations were accepting payments to top up Sube cards. I suspect that the systems can't handle the higher value fares and credits (last time I added AR$2K and the payment had to be loaded in two tranches) but I wasn't previously aware...

Apart from all the good, artistic reason? Because They Make Money. Scanning the box office receipts for some of the Argentine films I've seen they have all taken between ten and fifteen times their production costs so they represent an excellent investment for the nation.

Yes! Thank you both. Copyus/Nutrias fit the biil. What's more if you search on that name Los Lagos de Palermo come up in the results so I think we have a match!

I am not Australian (or any other spelling variation thereof) but even I know that there are restaurants in Melbourne with eye-wateringly high prices and I don't consider here that you are comparing like with like. Once again you seem to be playing the harbinger, the portent, the emissary of...

We went to Palermo Hippodrome yesterday to watch some races. Very interesting - probably more interesting if we had put some money on but the big attraction yesterday was that they were running "Chorifest 2024" on the grounds at the same time. Yum! Now for the question: what were the four...

You will know this already, @Johhny but for others out there who don't, just place the card on the balance checker screen in Subte and railway stations and the number will be displayed.
