  1. I've bought it recently where nutz says. They call it cannabis oil. I'm not sure if this is the same as CBD oil.
  2. solajijic how can I meet you to buy two tri-light bulbs?

  3. I would hate to lose Shaw as I love it especially with the receiver that records two channels at once. It is getting very expensive though-over $120 a month. Maybe streaming will be the answer but will you get channels live TVO, the Knowledge Network and PBS?
  4. I'm getting messages from Shaw saying that I need new equipment. HD upgrade. What is this all about? I have two receivers one of which is HD. It doesn't matter to me if it is HD or not as I can't tell the difference? Are they just trying to make some sales or is there something else?
  5. The solar rings don't work as well and they don't last long. I can manage a pool cover myself even though I don't have a roller. The roller would just be in the way many months of the year. What are the dimensions of your pool? A solar blanket is essential. You can have it made to the exact size of your pool. Then you have to learn how to maneuver it. Don't expect to use your pool all year as it is too cool here in the winter.
  6. Thanks. I need to go to their Family History Center.
  7. Does anyone have the website for the LDS church in Riberas. I am trying to find out when they are open to the public.
  8. Several years ago I tried to find individuals who would come with their own equipment and do maintenance and some gardening. I kept my eye out for guys driving into my fraccionamiento doing this and would ask them if they wanted more work. I never was sucessful but it should work. You see very few advertised. I will ask a couple of guys I know that do this and if they are interested I will send you their info by a PM. What area do you live in?
  9. Wouldn't it be nice if there was a gardening school in the area where locals could learn to be proper gardeners.
  10. When I bought my fairly large property I wondered why there were so few plants growing there-quite barren. I thought this is semi tropical so it should be quite lush and interesting. The first season I let the gardener that came with the property do the watering and gardening. Then I understood. Virtually all he did was water (in a pecular manner) and since my soil has a lot of clay the plant roots drown/rotted in the soggy soil. The gardener knew very little about plants even though he had worked next door for years where his father had been the gardener for over 30 years. Likewise that property is pretty barren. The only thing that does well there is the grass which he waters to such excess that it drains onto my property. My gardener has since been restricted to digging big holes when needed, using the lawnmower (but not the grass trimmer as he cuts the bark on trees I have planted), raking and sweeping the decks and cutting down high palm palapas.
  11. There are a number of individuals that do this but I don't know of a company. They come with all their equipment and cut and prune, water and fertilizer. You may have to do some watering between their visits. You don't have to worry about getting gas or having your lawnmower fixed. I've found that very few (almost none) of the gardeners know much about plants, insects or pruning. A company who would do all of this could make a good business of it.
  12. Several have said that the nursery behind Super Lake will design and plant your garden. After which all you need is someone to water, fertilize, and weed.
  13. The manager at HSBC told me the same. Don't go the beneficiary route but add them to your account.
  14. That business at Ocotlan is a hoax. I checked it out.
  15. I will look for it as I try and keep an open mind.
  16. Much more likely it is extraordinary drones or balloons or? as there are no such thing as UFOs. They can always be explained eventually so they aren't unidentified.
  17. tomgates you said to contact you for a really good contractor. I'm trying to find someone who can repaint my concrete pool deck. I've had it donr 4 times in 7 years and it is peeling

      I had it done by a contractor I've never used before last January. So far it is holding up well. I think that is so because of the paint I used more so than the contractor.

  18. I've been told by other users that I can no longer receive private e mails. Can that be? Cedros 

  19. I can never remember the name of those outdoor sinks unless I see it written down. The ones made of concrete, divided into two parts-one part without a drain the other part with a drain and built in scrub "board"?
  20. Donnie I'm having the same problem as you with a new I phone. I' ve found manual but they assume I already know things that I don't so I keep thinking what? Did you have success?

  21. Rony do you know if they are doing drivers licenses in Chapala this week? I have checked the government of Chapala sites and don't see anything. Where did you fine the notice that they were coming last month?
