We've had our dog 6 years, she's always been sweet natured and has never bitten the kids (5 & 2) before. I wouldn't dream of putting her down! I was sweeping the yard a couple of metres away from them at the time but it only took a second.

Thanks Citygirl, he's doing great. I think I made a mistake about the OR, that word is quirofano and it says quirurgico. This is what the bill says - Derecho Quirurgico - $ 3830.86 Cirujano - Honorarios - $2386.12 Plus various other minor charges. I realise the honorarios is for the surgeon...

jp, it was our own dog, she's never snapped at the kids before. I was only a couple of metres away, I think he picked up something of hers, maybe her bone....it happened in a second. I have an international insurance, but there was some mix-up with the new paperwork and it seems he was never...

Thanks Internationalguy, he's doing well but it was scary for him having stitches as he's only 2 and a half. Praying there's no scar!

My son needed three stitches in his lip for a dog bite today. It took ten minutes in the consulting room and I was charged $6280!!! Disgusting. On the bill over $3000 was the cost of an operating theatre which wasn't the case.

Can anyone please PM me with an address of a place near the centre/monserrat/congresso. Thanks!

Welcome! Is your name an eyeshadow by any chance?

I feel for you. In the last 18 months, I have had to buy 5 kettles for one of the rooms I rent out on airbnb. They are all such sh%$ that there's no point buying a more expensive one, and remember you're already paying more for the cheapest one than the most expensive one in US or europe. Plus...

If you open a snow cone stand, I'll be your first customer and I'm sure they'll be a giant queue behind me.

This part is ok. I live a couple of blocks from there and have been worrying that the area is going to get too posh. Moreno lives near and suddenly security cameras have been installed and all the pavements fixed. There are all these new restaurants and cafes popping up. One of the top...

I love Cape Town and would also be happy to live there if it wasn't for the crime. I do feel safer in Buenos Aires even though I've had a gun pointed at me here. I'm just scared of the more violent crimes you read about in SA, such as being rapped and then chopped up with a machete.

If you're planning to have kids, there's no point buying anything under 40m2. And if you want to rent out to tourists at a high occupancy rate, you should look at areas like Recoleta, Barrio Norte, Palermo, San Telmo, or the blurred boundaries of these areas if they're too expensive.

Interested as to where you read the $40k figure. A modest condo in a rentable to tourists neighbourhood would cost $80 - $140 K.

To clarify, I have blue eyes and fair hair so in no way fit the word descriptively. And the friend who calls me this is 100% indigineous, or as people say "negro" so obviously he's not using the word in a racist way. I guess it's just a friendly term then.

I have a friend who says this to me from time to time in conversation at the start of a new topic. I know what he means, "hey, mate" something like that. I am just puzzled by the negra bit as I am fair- haired and pale.

I live in Constitucion, 2 blocks from Independencia so the neighbours prefer to call it San Telmo or Monserrat which it almost is. I wouldn't recommend moving with a family to the area beyond the underpass (after Avenida San Juan) and definitely not by the train station. It's a colourful area...

Tight leggings, but of course she's still wearing black for mourning?!

Has anyone got a digital/electronic lock for their door? Recomendations/experiences/advice welcome please. This seems reasonably priced, some cost over $4000 pesos. http://articulo.mercadolibre.com.ar/MLA-471606751-cerradura-electronica-autonoma-codigo-y-pastilla-control-acc-_JM

And don't trash the shells either, eat them (after boiling) for the calcium. It's meant to be good for your teeth.

I love root veg chips but alas I have never seen them here. They cost a lot in UK, how much are they selling for?
