I do a lot of Airbnbs during the year.
Many have a Nespresso coffee maker, but I have never received more than two pods from any host. That is fine, to be honest.
When I travel, I pack a few of my tea bags from home and that sorts me out when I wake up
Bloody cold this morning....
The rain has more or less stopped but it ix now very windy....
I think Francisco didnt travel to Argentina , as he didn't want to get too close to CFK.
Any trip would have been used politically by one side or the other.
A friend from New Jersey brought some tea from the USA
Lipton's Yellow Label Black tea
Surprisingly, it's a blend of teas from Argentina and Malawi
We had a lull of about an hour , but it came back on heavy again
We were woken up at 06.00 with a helluva storm . Heavy rain has just stopped , but still raining...
36mm forecast for the day but at least half of that has already fallen.
Probably to allow them to register the brand name.
Flat roofs are always a problem here. It's a permanent job keeping the drainage hole clear. Plus they have to be regularly covered with waterpoof paint or membrane.
Yip , the drainage hole got totally blocked . Now sorted and the membrane repaired. Now, it gets checked every week.
Most of the roof is sloping , but there are about 6 sqm of flat roof , which is where we had the problem.
If Ikea ever arrives here , they will make a fortune.
Ikea is decent quality, decent price and lasts for a couple of years. Just when you get fd up with it , it begins to fall apart.
Their bookshelves were always decent and lasted the pack
We got 90mm in 4 hours last night.
A months worth of rain in a very short time.
Lots of water about the place but not any great damage - quite a lot of flooding in he centre of Escobar.
The good thing is that we had no leaks in our roof. We did quite a bit if work over the last six months . So it looks like we can paint a couple of the rooms now...
We just realized we haven't watched Netflix for three months.
So we have cancelled it....
There are days I love it, and days I hate it.
I get pissed off with the lies that the government tell us . Like inflation will be zero this year when we all know it will be around 30% and unlikely to fall further
I love Argentina!!!
Do I get a medal?
Gold medal and a passport.....
We have just had 30 minutes of very heavy rain.
The forecast now says 4 or 5 hour of internittent showers , then more heavy rain.
Not really sure what this is all about but if you have nothing to do next month ...
Campeonato Mundial del Alfajor
