ComputerGuy Posted July 22, 2019 Report Share Posted July 22, 2019 It is temporary while they work on the regular streets. They expected about six weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WideSky Posted July 22, 2019 Report Share Posted July 22, 2019 AND from any of the pictures of Obregon; there is a concrete center so much easier to walk down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Blair Posted July 23, 2019 Report Share Posted July 23, 2019 It would be nice to know where the "new" location is. I didn't know why it was not there Monday, and still don't know where it is going to be next Monday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eric Blair Posted July 23, 2019 Report Share Posted July 23, 2019 Thanks for all the irrelevant information. I don't know where Obregon is. Please excuse my ignorance. It would really be appreciated if someone could respond directly to my question and stop the sniping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chapalence Posted July 23, 2019 Report Share Posted July 23, 2019 David AKA Eric Blair, the tianguis has been and will continue to be on Calle Gonzalez Gallo in front of Parque Cristiana until the much-needed work on Calle Obregon has been completed. FYI- Obregon runs parallel to and to the west of Calle Francisco Madero. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil I am surprised that you say it is SO MUCH CLEANER AND NICER....if you went this Monday the North end of Calle Gonzalez Gallo street was full waste water which had over flowed from the sewer.... terrible stinky and smelly . At the best of times that end near the IMSS clinic, always has a strong odor and many times wet under foot even in the dry season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe he has been here coming up on 15 years. He was upset that the market wasn’t where it has been but does not know that the street it was on is Calle Obregon. When told the name of the street he says he does not know where that is and appears incapable of using a map. People have been excusing his ignorance (real or feigned) for years and he wonders why fewer and fewer people are willing to excuse his ignorance. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonbelle Posted July 24, 2019 Report Share Posted July 24, 2019 I am new to this board and certainly dont know when things are changing here unless i want to live on this board. Could not figure out why my internet wasnt working and as i have been able to go down and pay my bill which is usually paid near beginning of month but have till end of month. The nice Girl Mexican lady that works there said to me last month when I paid don't forget you have till the end of the month to pay. So as I go in today and the name has been changed to whiz I asked her why I am getting no signal for my internet. Because when they changed the name the other day evidently they change the due date of the bill although disregarded telling anyone. Do you know the name of every street you drive down in ajijic and which way it goes one way, two way, no Arrow, change names at some point and one minute you're on one Street in the next minute you might be on another. I question you that as you all sit here and make nasty rude comments to this man because he didn't know the Chapala tianguis had moved. I think most of you ought to be ashamed of yourselves have you nothing better to do than berate other people on this board quite frankly you are keeping people off this board because they're scared if they're new and they ask a question they will be belittled Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xena Posted July 24, 2019 Report Share Posted July 24, 2019 Sorry. Some of us zip in and out of this and the other local board to pick up bits of information that end up saving us lots of time and trouble. If you set your view to “Unread Content” that is all you see, stuff from all the forums that you have not yet read. You can then very quickly scroll the headlines and the bit of preview shown. You then click on and read only the posts that have something to offer you. If you did this each day (or a few times a day in between your other online business) you can keep up with things that are changing. And if you knew “this man” and his history on this and the other local board you would understand why some people react to him as we do. Finally, if people wanting to make a new life in a foreign country are afraid to ask questions because someone might not be as sensitive to their feelings as they believe they should be, those people are going to have a rougher time than they need to have. 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonbelle Posted July 24, 2019 Report Share Posted July 24, 2019 I have been coming here since 1962 and i have never seen people act this way before. If you dont like the man say nothing at all otherwise all the new people on board get a ridiculous accidental pre-judgement of this man.

I usually do that. But sometimes he gets on my last nerve. I have put his previous identities on ignore and need to do that with this one. People usually figure him out on their own if they interact with him enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That´s 58 years, without ever seeing people act this way before? Either you don´t see many people or you have have been extremely UNLUCKY. If you can´t call a spade, a spade, on these forums then what´s their use? Stick to the tea parties in Alice´s garden where no one is ever questioned or offended. 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil in mexico Posted July 24, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2019 I will have to disagree with you lakeside . I went last Monday the 22nd , we entered from Morelos and shopped for several blocks in each direction and found it clean dry and pleasant, and every vender (several) i talked with favored the new location over the old location. I stopped going to the old location because the street condition and the hill and it was certainly dirty. That's my take and I hope its stay at the new location. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigd Posted July 24, 2019 Report Share Posted July 24, 2019 I have lived in Ajijic since 1993. It is true that people are becoming less tolerant and one sided maybe because of the way it is in the US now? People are different........ 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Web boards are not the real world,I've been here in part of the Municipio of Chapala, which Ajijic is a small part of, about as long as you and I don't see change as you suggest in the real world,in the persons I choose to interact with. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
