I pretty much agree with what's said on page 5. One thing I would say though is that the people watching the news need to try harder to understand why it happens. Its been said for a long time that this would happen and stock investment type economic speculative have been saying almost with...

Perhaps my darn $2000 flights to and from BA to see the girlfriend aren't so expensive after all

See you tonight x

I got a ipad2 16gb wifi for 2999 if anyone's interested

Hi all! I'm coming back on Thursday, see you at a meetup a week Wednesday. Loads of questions, I thought I'd just ask to see if anyone might know where I can find these things, could save me lots of hassle. Do you know where I can find/recommend: - somewhere to do permanent hair removal...

Perhaps I can save you hassle to check DHL. They wanted US$80 to mail a letter to the UK, I decided not to bother. That said, such services I presume are loads more reliable than national services.

How far to the sea John? Not that I have access to $60,000 right now!

Get on a VoIP forum and start researching. VoIP systems are what big companies use to connect international offices and it should be the same quality, if not better than PSTN (regular) phones. You can call through the internet over VoIP and make it look like you're calling from a regular...

can you tell me more? I walked into the main bank in Colonia and they didn't seem to understand what I was saying, deliberately I think. I wondered if it's all hush-hush and taboo? I wanted to research how to open a deposit box though, not an account.

I'll say it before and I'll say it again. You've got to start using a non fiat currency in your everyday life where ever you can. Every time you can do so you protect yourself. The journey of a thousand miles takes just that first step. Just that first transaction. One transaction. What...

If you're someone who wants an alternative income safe from their own government and wishes to do things a "different" way, Argentina forces an attitude change to hiding from government rather than working with it - Incognito & en negro, not job like things. Starlucia is right, while in BA I...

just a little bit packed for us! got scared and ran away, lovely though

I agree with most of these things on this thread regards the city. It only makes sense if you are expecting trouble; perhaps on the run from tax inspectors. Perceptions are everything. I heard a lot of negative stuff about here. A massive amount. I was told I would definitely be held up at...

The people working next door go from 9am to maybe 5pm. Noise seems to be accepted up to at least 10pm, some sort of party on last night. I'd like to know what's accepted. The banging drives me mad but since it's during the day when you'd normally be at work I put wax earplugs in you get from...

Pay-as-you-go makes everything simpler. VoIPCheap is a trading name for a company who's name I forget but that company has very good prices. That company operates under different names in the US and elsewhere. (if only I could remember the name!) They don't have a subscription charge, which...

PM me. My bike can{t do cobbled roads and offroad though

I was careful to avoid the yellow kerbs and blue boxes, yet I have what I think may be a ticket this morning. It looks more like the sort of thing a resident puts on a car to try to keep the space clear. It's badly photocopied with no information on it other than the date and `SW TARJE TA" on...

BA specific health tips Thought I'd share what I've learnt now I'm off again. - leave the top off drinks container in the fridge; the cholrine evaporates, tastes better as a result. Am I right? Love to be sure this isn't a placebo - traffic fumes reduce massively only 5m and then even more...

It's obviously about oil. It's always about oil. The US talk that it's about something else? -yeah right

Agreed. I've found this is pretty universal. In the UK I had a few kroner left over once and it was at a rate that cost me like 20%. I thought I'd do it anyway as the odds of me returning were low and I decided I would pay the massive fee to save me the effort of finding somewhere else; that is...
