    Football with sound? A hopeless dream?

    Go to Sugar. They'll have the sound on. They're going to have all the World Cup Matches, I think, and drink specials while you're watching them. Talk to Keith, he'll make sure that the game you want to watch will be on. Tell him Con sent you.

    Expats meet up this Friday night

    It all depends on what people want. If they want a bar, Mamaracha is not the place. It's more of a daytime cafe, nighttime restaurant. A bit of a poser place and very expensive (probably close to 30 pesos for a sandwich now), although the food is tasty. It's always crowded and there is...

    DNI Question

    Thanks for the info, pretty much the same as what I was told at immigration. Although I can't seem to get a straight answer from anyone on the antecedentes criminales question!

    Level of Violence in Buenos Aires?

    I find the level of corruption here to be very frustrating. Whenever there is a problem, locals advise to to just bribe someone, but I have never been able to find someone bribable! It would be so much simpler sometimes to be able to just paysome extra to get on the fast track, or off the...

    Level of Violence in Buenos Aires?

    I'd advise anyone who is thinking of doing business here to think very carefully. There's a lot of shucking and jiving necessary. It gets tiring dealing with all the crap when all you want to do is create a good business.
