necessity. Watch the local news on television. Try a construction project if available and you're brave. Encourage people to correct you. Add one idiom and one new word every morning with coffee. Peruvians speak a lovely spanish. Venezuelans as well and they can be helpful. Chat up the people at the...

PS I wonder what the hepatitis A case load will be in a few weeks. Hahahahahaha.

Re: idiots from santiago. My town has been inundated with a mob from santiago. The usual - noisey rude people who drive too fast. What they didn't count on was water. Hahaha. Well the joke's on all of us. There's not enough. Water has been cut off for minimum of 12 hours a day every day. All that ea...

I'm going to take exception to that. It was a street dog, i.e. abandoned by some human. It attacked me from behind - just like they do in the movies of dog packs pulling down cows, horses, sheep, what have you. This kind of thing happens more often than some dog owners think. Joggers, bicyclers, kid...

a couple of points re the vaccines... truly the Pfizer effort looks scary. Not even tested on animals and an entirely new approach which is now all of three months old? No thanks.

My permanent residency had been approved, but I hadn't been able to finalize the paperwork due to estrangeros screw ups...

Thanks all. To eeuunikkeiexpat - I remember the horror stories which your family suffered.... I thought we were past that. Oh well.

Greetings all. I'm not sure if this should be in the covid thread or the constitution thread - or maybe both but here goes. An anecdote: I live in region V on the coast. My area is now stage 4 and Santiago is mostly stage 3. I had assumed from recent announcements that travel weekdays between the tw...

To be fair - yes the huge majority of maestros who work on houses or small apartments are expletive deleted BUT, I have to say that the earthquake tech is impressive... starting with my place - one of the few things that got done right the first time was the triangulated corners which greatly streng...

Hahahahahahahahahaha I used to just call them the 86ers... which is the average world IQ or so I'm told. BTW, so far so good with maestro number ten after three weeks. I'm not giving out his phone number! Until the work is finished anyway.

I always appreciate your posts fraggle....thanks for taking the time.
