THAT is what I hate about roundabouts: once in the circle, it’s not always clear that you’ll ever get out!

Hey! Watch yourself, Semigoodlooking -
That was no old lady; that was ME.

UK Man , Splinter fixed a pretty scary problem I had 3 months ago, using Team Viewer. Did it remotely from another continent. Full marks!
In gratitude we are going to give him our firstborn son.

“Lane filtering” sounds like a euphemism.

Ah, shades of clandestine hunts for illicit alcohol during the the American Prohibition era! You’d better keep one eye on your mirrors, Splinter , because you may be inadvertently leading other Old Speckled Hen lovers to your source.
(And keep that camera turned on!)

Better Call Splinter!

Half of the rules mentioned in the video are overruled daily. Nobody stops to let a pedestrian cross, not even bikes!
Anyway, on the 26th it should be just a bureaucratic matter and they will just take a picture, take in the payment receipt and print the card.
Cost of renewal: 990 ARS.
Re: driver's test - no vision test given? That's a scary thought, with all the creative driving.
Re: bikes not stopping for pedestrians - I'm surprised the same rule doesn't apply to the car/bike vs pedestrian situation as applies to the car vs bike situation. Or maybe it does, but the same observance isn't made for mere pedestrians?

Oh, it will be interesting to see the videos you shoot!

Just yesterday, in Italy a man stabbed (and killed) another one because of a matter of giving way at a roundabout. The victim was a 28 years old father and husband. His wife and kid(s) were in the car and saw everything.
ummm - maybe the immediate appeal of the offer to be paid to live in an Italian town should be reconsidered?

This cautionary tale is the best argument I've heard, in favor of maintaining a civil relationship with an ex-spouse. What would you have done if she'd told you to take a hike and sort it out yourself?

Am I right in saying the guy that stopped and said sorry wasn't the tosser who caused the car to crash?
I was confused by that too. But he did seem more agitated than the ordinary bystander.
I never saw anything quite like those things in the UK, plenty of effing and blinding though.
"plenty of effing and blinding" made me grin. Then I had to wonder what blinding is?

I’m curious: is this typical of a response most British people would have these days?

I LOVE shrimp/langostinos, but find the ones in Argentina to be briny tasting rather than lobster-sweet. I've tried at Ostramar as well as Chinatown.
Splinter , are whitebait those tiny, tiny little fish that are eaten whole? Our chef-landlord in New Zealand served those to us and we really enjoyed them. Never had heard of them before. Do they sell them in BsAs? If so, where and by what name?

Good grief!

Hyperbole always makes the point, doesn’t it.

I’d go for the red salmon any time!
We’re grilling tonight: bife de lomo, potatoes / zucchini brushed with olive oil. Malbec.

I think we should start group Italian lessons from serafina . That offer from the small Italian towns in certainly a head turner, especially if they help with the red tape!

Terrible situation. Clever response by the supermarket. I’ve never seen that much Heinz Ketchup in one place in my life.
