    If Not Argentina Then Where?

    my advice is dont take any advice and dont monitor forums. Before the days of the internet how did people make decisions?!? Come for a holiday. Do what you want. See what happens. I'm happy, and i generally ignore most advice.

    Heinz Baked Beans

    try barrio chino - they have heinz tomato ketchup, perhaps they have beans. If not you could try to make your own?!?! Also, if the Chinese suddenly thinks there is a demand i'm sure they'll bring them in. I'll ask today, you ask tomorrow and we'll get a few more foreigners to do the same...!!?

    Thatcher is back?!

    another number(ish) crunch - the last time the british government made cuts on this scale was in 1918 (did we spend too much in Iraq?!?!). Unemployment jumped from 4 to 10% in two years

    Thatcher is back?!

    I'm sorry, but these cuts are not little. I agree with the surveillance issue - and they are not cutting there. But the tories have a habit of creating social unrest. For me that is a day in day out big problem.

    Thatcher is back?!

    A UK thread... So, a little bit of criminal damage at the Tory Party's headquarters?! Is this the first of many reactions to the Tory cuts? Are we going back to the 80s? Is this another case of saying goodbye to Labour, then realising they weren't that bad? And Clegg the back-tracker and...

    Who are the future BAEXPATS?

    As a foreigner with an Argentine does that make you an immigrant? That is my 'official' status, married to an Argentine, and we have no intentions of leaving. Watching Margaret Thatcher on the steps of Downing Street with David Cameron hardly incites me to return home. I can not comment on...

    Tupac Amaru a terrorist group?!?!?!? I have had the pleasure of seeing their projects in action in Jujuy. There are no terrorists working in the housing projects, schools or hospitals that they have built using the poor and homeless.

    Kirchner Rescued Argentinas Economy and help unite South America

    luis majul writes books that end up worthless within 6 months. The cartoñeros make good money from people throwing his writing away, and that's the best thing Majul has done for the poor. He has no backing to his suppositions and is not respected within any real intellectual circle. He is a...

    Nestor Kirchner has just passed

    Thank you Pericles. Thanks to the Guardian (one of the last bastions of real journalism). I have read all the posts here and thought hard about what to say. There is no 'perfect' politician. It's a shame that this imperfect politician had to die to be recognised for his stance against the IMF...
