    Golden Retriever Needs Loving Home

    Hi, I need help to home an 11 month old male golden retriever. To cut a long story short he was handed back to us by a young family who weren't able to put up with his typical pain in the butt puppy behaviour. Seems they were not giving him any exercise at all which is obviously not good for...

    A Society That Doesn't Want Sacrifices?

    I read they were giving away 3 or 4 per person. Not that it makes a lot of difference!!! Maybe if after having received the fruit you were allowed to pelt it at some passing politician or even one of the many newscrews gathered then I might have been tempted to stand in line.

    Mercosur Travel, Dni Or Passport?

    I have residency here and will be travelling to Santiago in a few weeks. From what I have been reading Chile is super cheap in comparison with Bs As and so wanted to take the opportunity to get a new phone and maybe laptop.

    How Are There So Many New Cars?

    So the correction must come in the way of more business friendly legislation to lower taxes or a devaluation of the peso. There must come a point when people wont or simply cant pay such high prices.

    Sending A Package From Uk To Buenos Aires Advice?

    If you send by "signed for" then it will arrive at her door (if packet is small, light and contains nothing expensive), be sent to Retiro or be returned to you in the UK. If you send by standard post then likely will be 'lost'.

    Sending A Package From Uk To Buenos Aires Advice?

    Use 'Royal Mail signed for'. I had some tea sent to me a month or so ago but was not home (allegedly) when the postie came. I could have gone to Retiro to collect the packet but couldn't spare the time. The packet was sent back to the sender in the UK and arrived last week. You can track the...
