  1. What has that got to do with YOU, MC? You're not a Mexican and you can well afford to give a hard-working guy a little appreciation for "safe home".
  2. Blanket, you are making the HUGE assumption that IMSS will even take you!!!!! HIGHLY unlikely. Then you're assuming there won't be a MAJOR wait time for costlier things...... and any pre- existing conditions ( such as you've stated you have), would be excluded forever anyway.
  3. Unless you're going to try and get an Uber at GDL airport, you have NO OPTION but to use their provided cabs so using any other website is a waste of time don't forget to tip the driver since he has to kick back a %age of each trip to them
  4. About 50-60 pesos more to Ajijic as distance is further. Also, it seems to matter what TIME you need one. Last year I paid more ( evening arrival) than this year when I arrived around 3 pm
  5. Oatsie he was sick for a while ...... I had to wait for about 3 weeks for him to come to us for "maintenance" on our FS but that was all over by very early March. Yes.... Shaw situation will have created a whole new can of worms, but he's definitely worth the wait.
  6. Or even better...... GO DIRECTLY TO THEM and then you'll know what's right and what isn't.
  7. Meanwhile, to we Canadians, the rates Americans are getting are only a distant dream. March 7 for CAD: MXN ( credit card or ATM rate) : 12.0895 😭
  8. (1) Go out and look at your elec meter. Any actiuon? (2) IF you can, check those of a few adjacent neighbours. You will be asked if this is only your house, or general area. (2) Get out your CFE bill. Call 071. (Land line or cell phone) Be prepared to give NUMERO DE SERVICIO ( 12 numbers) plus name of owner ( you or not) upper left. They MIGHT at this time be able to tell you they're working on it, and if so, will give you a Report Number and when it was first reported. If not, they may have to check further and will require house address and names of streets to east and west of you even if you are on a corner lot. This will, or course, be in Spanish. And yes... CFE are getting really good at this ( not like in the "OLD" days!)
  9. Chopo by the original Pancho's in Riberas. EXCELLENT equipment, and be sure to ask about "deals of the week" because they always have something. Also VERY easy for you, Lexy, to navigate.
  10. But there IS a happy ending! On line site gave me permission to keep, toss, or donate the faulty item. Marisela at iSHop took one look, clasped it to her chest, grinned and said " for my mother with osteoporosis!!!!!" YAY!
  11. Just to be clear. I had no idea one could order from TEMU directly. In my case, this is NOT what happened ( not where original was placed). New item arrived yesterday (not via them) and was exactly as expected. That said, I agree..... in many cases I don't care if something is a "generic"....... but THIS "generic" turned out to be apples vs turnips!!!
  12. For clarification only.... two item in pix. Upper is what I got. Lower is (my original) what I ordered. ALL online info order page conformed to lower item.
  13. Jan 3 this year made a (replacement item) purchase on line. LONG delivery date ( over 30 days) should have been a clue..... but trusted site so accepted ( price a factor). No show as expected, then e-mail advising another delay. Final arrival Feb 14 of totally unacceptable cheap knock-off substitute. Fortunately have received reverse charge to credit card but only after a lot of personal effort plus co-operation of original site. Apparently, (iSHop confirms) many reliable sites don't seem to indicate but somehow offload the shipping responsibility ( mostly from China and points east) to TEMU. Happened in this case. I'm told it's happening in Canada and U.S. too, and ??? CONCLUSION and message to all. IF the price is great BUT the delivery date is at least a month away, DO NOT GO THERE!!! Pretty much a guarantee (The item I bought, upon my complaint, disappeared and was replaced by higher $$/better ship time. Today I see it's back up again with over 30 day ship date and cheaper price)
  14. I M O........ all good intentions aside. OHIP is the ultimate authority on the OP's question, and OHIP is where OP should be looking in order to get full and complete info direct from source.
  15. Have you looked at the lake level lately? Let it POUR.... whatever hour!!!
  16. Gee.... I wonder if you think NOB gov't websites should all have Spanish buttons.......?
  17. If the background circumstances were different, I'd think this could be funny too. But rich or poor, prince or pauper, celeb or ordinary guy..... when the backstory includes serious, sudden abdominal surgery for "undisclosed reasons" on Kate Middleton, William's wife and mother of three young children, with a recovery time that could be 2 months or more, coming a time when abdication on Charles's part is being discussed......... the stress on William is enormous and NOT funny. NOT a comment on whether I'm pro or con-Royal. Just viewing this from what I hope is a compassionate and empathetic view of a human being at a very bad time of his life. PLEASE. No further written comments needed from me or others. Thank you.
