According to reports, she resigned because she's 'worn out', which is hardly surprising considering the government has been trying to get rid of her for nearly two years. But of course, there's no such thing as a coincidence in politics. Her K affiliation has always been a thorn in the...

No surprise there then, especially since it's his second run-in with Venezuelan authorities. In 2012 he was held for several hours and later freed, but all his recordings were allegedly wiped. On this occasion however, it must have felt like deja vu. A bit like turning up at your ex wife's gaff...

When I heard that Lanata was making a return last night I groaned a little, especially since his recent makeover was a little dull. Anyway, he's back with the old format and opened with House of Grieta and then some delicious audios of Cristina chatting with Pirelli (sic) and revealing aspects...

For anyone who has ever taken a vehicle practical test here (Prov BsAs), this should come as no surprise whatsoever. In fact, I would even go as far as to say that it was nothing more than a bizarre ritual, disproportionately skewed at around 20/80 to bureaucracy rather than actual proficiency...

Milk in a bag, because it's cheaper. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yPxTr2dmBTc

A man was pulled off rather forcibly from an AA flight in Chicago and they issued a statement saying 'not in accordance with our standard operating procedure', which must be the understatement of the year, surely. Hired thugs more like it and I'm glad I'm flying BA in June...

Fascinating story from the BBC http://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-39375257

Here we go again. Just because the government is unable to combat armed gangs and robbers (motochorros) who use motorbikes to kill and rob, law abiding bikers will have to be marked out by the obligatory use of a reflective vest with the bike registration printed on it as well as on the helmet...

This is an interesting post from a bloke who went to Chile on his motorbike in search of cheap mobile phones. Very informative. https://www.taringa.net/posts/turismo/19799112/Cruce-la-cordillera-por-un-par-de-celus-Queres-info.html?notification#comment-1609091

Anyone had any experience flying Aeroparque/Sao Paulo/Heathrow with Latam? We're considering it for a trip in a few months and it seems to be around 300 USD cheaper than BA/Iberia from EZE.

Lanata does a special PPT tonight, Sunday 20th March, especially in light of the recent money counting video. Naturally, La Morsa asks "Is it illegal now, to count money?" Priceless...

This is a trip I was going to do late last year, but a shoulder problem put paid to it and we went by car in January instead, which isn't the same, but it was still impressive. I'll be leaving early on the 30th for the run to Jesus Maria, Cordoba (750 kms), then early the next day to Famailla...

Purely by chance and they are delicious!

Adri parks the car in the same one way street near Olivos train station every time she goes to town and there are no yellow lines down the left hand side where she normally parks it. So they lifted it and she had to trog off about ten blocks to the municipal car pound and it's only a shame she...

Remember that morose bloke on TN who covers grizzly murders and the like, well this is his brother, the funnier brother. http://content.jwplatform.com/previews/9sbWRQik-9xWS3lpU

Showing my ignorance here, but when we were driving in the wilderness in our little Honda Fit, we realised that we probably needed a car with better ground clearance, say a small 4x4 or crossover. Anyway, Adri mentioned that our cleaner was in a plan for a Ford Ecosport and she was having...

4500 kms over 8 days, BA to Tilcara by car and 6 hotels, this little water heating device (pictured below) was invaluable for tea and coffee early in the morning. Cost $60. Garmin GPS in the car, more than useful in towns and cities, backed up by Google maps and a Bluetooth car radio for pairing...

A very noteworthy event considering this hasn't happened for donkey's years and let's hope they can discuss other things besides the elephant in the room or at least improve the logistics.

In keeping with the all things Argentina theme, interesting to note how the president is pretty much reversing the trend set by his predecessor. He'll be travelling by regular airlines in future or private jet where necessary. Also interesting to see Prat Gay (still can't get used to that name)...
