    Now that's dedication to the cause ..... THREE party conferences ... I'm amazed that they don't now require counselling :-)

    The liberals might be beardy-wierdy but they certainly aren't communist Jorgebobo. You should get out of Comodoro more and learn about the world.

    Jorge, in English the word ' liberal ' can mean many things. As far as politics are concerned in the USA a liberal is a bit to the left of a communist, in Australia the Liberal Party is the countries conservative party, while in the UK I believe the Lib-Dems are what somewhat middle of the road. Unlike many Latin American countries the english speaking democracies do not just have far left and far right... that is what makes them work.

    Oh Dear ....
    Marcos... you have fallen pray to the 'bold assumption'... a trap for young players everywhere....
    No elections in my country 2 years ago....
    ...sorry about that..
    My politics? Very middle of the road... something unknown in many countries
    However I do have a very well tuned 'bullshitometer' which goes off the scale whenever the argentina word is mentioned....

    I wouldn't hang around in these forums too long Frank, every time an Argie pipes up your bullshitometer will go off the scale and eventually blow up!

    Its OK... the safety valves have been tested and are working to specs... my dickhead alert sometimes wakes me in the night though....that may need adjustment.
    Still no butter in the shops last month... the true poor are now sleeping on the pavement outside Retiro Station during the day... bit of a bugger stepping over and around them... poor sods cant even afford the rent for a squat in Villa 31......
    Back in BA in a fortnight... unfortunately.... but I shall be through there like shit through a goose.....

    Maybe if the Falklands thing gets out of hand the British should go back and reclaim all the infrastructure they sold 'em... OK so its all 100 years old but they are still using it..... nothing new in Argieland ....

    That's what you said, wasn't it? Including all the foreign gibberish.
