  2. Super Lake has it on occasion. Just came from there and didn't notice but is usually on an end cap just after you enter and pass the household supplies, near the tea aisle. I think it is from Jordan? Having lived in the Middle East for m any years, I'm also somewhat picky. An online store called Halva Boutique is supposed to be very good but the prices are HIGH. Am probably going back to Saudi for few weeks in spring, excess luggage is a wonderful thing,
  3. This was left to LCS in her will - with the intent that it benefit the Children's Art Program with Efren as the auctioneerl Some great stuff from the photos. See www.lakechapalasociety.com - photo on the home page with links to photos for both auctions.
  4. Go to Telmex - desk to the right at the entrance who handles fibre optic. I signed up about 2 months ago and she said it would be a month till they got to my district. I saw them working down the street a month later and sure enough. Just checked and download of 158 and up is 94. Love it.
  5. Well, the last Desfile de Dia De Independencia before covid started EARLY. I live on Independencia so am one block south of the parade route on Ocampo. I took a chance to do an early errand and after 25 years here one would think I would know better. Normally west bound traffic on 16 de Septiembre was unofficially two way. I finally managed to get north of the mess and ended up sitting in the car on Pedro Moreno just north of Ocampo for 1 1/2 hours - one block from home. The car is staying home this Friday and me too since I'm sure the garage and front doors will be blocked. Never to old to learn! But do enjoy the parade.
  6. I installed the same system, TP Link, several years before fibre optic was installed last week. Very large house, two floors and works great all over the house. One is by the modem upstairs and the other two downstairs
  7. The same gentleman finished the connections on my fibre connection this morning - a few houses from Cyberjack on Independencia. All is good and I have 200 down and 109 up. Telmex website does state that there in no installation fee for fibre optic.
  8. I was also there last week for a renewal... The outside entry doors are green and painted info in big white letters It's behind Cruz Roja and across the large parking lot where the wonderful shop with embroidered blouses etc After we were done, Alfredo did say he'd just been advised that appointments were no longer necessary but we were all scheduled for early appointments = line when we were done was long and those folks with appointments were just told to get in line.

  14. Several weeks ago I received an email from Multiva. Google wouldn't translate it so to be I was interpreting it correctly, I printed it and asked at the office. The letter refers exactly to what you all are talking about. Manager at MV said that it only applied if you had a business and paid taxes....
  15. Farmacia Guadalajara and La Cristina don't have them. Amazon MX does and I ordered from them. Also Farm Maskaras by Go Lab had a container that looked as though they were from a health supply or whatever from Guad. I bought them but didn't get a chance to ask how often they had them in stock but did mention that I would need them on a regular basis - after every meal. First bottle from from my kidney doc at HSA.
