Nice, the madres de plaza are included on it as another constant reminder of this country`s horrible past. Cant they put something a bit more optimistic , picture of messi or something?

They were actually trying to purchase the jets with Argentine beef and wheat (not kidding) , but then Putin decided he wanted chicken for dinner instead.

Only on expats could a thread about supermarkets turn into a relationship counseling thread.

But would you touch them with a 10 foot hungarian?

Fair enough, wasnt anything about being first. Just it was strikingly similar to what i`d written off the top of my head.

Seems theyve already reviewed the issue reading the guardian. Seems that in Europe and especially in low cost airlines its ok to only leave one person in the cockpit. I think its different in other areas of the world where its compulsory to have at least 2 people in the cabin at all times due to...

You just rewrote my post from a few hours ago , well done ;-)

Actually seems like the passengers were only aware a few seconds before impact when screams were heard. Probably unaware until the mountains came into view. Seems like the co-pilot was depressed and decided to end it all, along with 149 other poor souls. what a tragedy.

So they wont allow cctv for privacy issues? And yet you walk down any major city street and you are on cctv, you walk in any store you are on cctv. Seems theres one law for airlines and another for everyone else. And yes they would tell you what happened, and then you can try and find a solution...

Exactly why airlines need cctv on the plane. Was this pilot awake or unconscious. They may never know.

Guilty until proven innocent i`m afraid. I was asked the other day to put my backpack on a hanger at the front of the shop next to the doors. I said that it contained 2 tablets,a camera and our passports, i`d rather keep it with me than leave it for someone to take. They said no, i`d have to...

I`m sure the personal scanners, will come to Argentina one day. Then you`ll just have to first find a scanner that still works. Have it chained to your person in case you steal it. Go around the products scanning it, if they have barcodes, hopefully the scanner battery keeps going throughtout...

Until they get behind the wheel of a car, and then they are total maniacs.

I bet that was taken in her first week, after she saw her pay packet she now just sits there txting while passing the occasional product through the scanner :-)

According to the Guardian they have extracted the voice recorder from the cockpit and have heard voices until the impact. So they have got something. What I dont understand is that in this day and age why on earth planes dont have cctv cameras installed throughout the plane. If you can buy a...

Note to self: Only go to the supermarket every 4 years. :-)

Actually I think half of that 3000 population is military (and sheep). You`re right about the money, Argentina shouldve offered every islander money they couldnt refuse to vote independence from Britain and then send them cheap wine and beef until they wanted to be part of Argentina. It may...

I guess they could attach some ropes to the wings and let the troops trapeze in.

The basis is because of Argentina intentions to buy 12 long range bombers from Russia, which has been rumoured since last Dec.

Did they add an L or have they left out an i ;)
