I noticed today there is a drive through testing site next to the Ajijic Clinic.

While I'm sure we all appreciate the good information on Talavera tiles, my originall question concerned commercial ceramic tiles. Are any of those places mentioned a good place to match a ceramic tile?

They are ceramic tiles...

Is there a "go to" place locally where I can get a small number of tiles to match existing ones? Alternative is to re-tile my bathroom.... Ugh. TIA

They say that they will, but my experience is that it is almost always declined. I have tried it on Amazon.mx and Mercadolibre many times, and it has worked maybe twice.

I got the email yesterday saying my bill is available. Clicked on the PDF link and downloaded the bill to my phone. No problem.

I have had Telmex fiber for some time (to the house, not the local pole). I'm paying 599 for 150 down, and consistently get 200 down and 100 up.

Two questions: 1. Is there anywhere lakeside where I can get VHS tapes digitized? 2. I would like to dispose of about 150 music CDs. Is there a worthwhile cause I can donate them to? TIA

Two family members tested yesterday at Hospital San Antonio for travel to USA tomorrow. They have both been vaccinated, but the test is still required. Antigen test, results in 15 min. $1600/pp

I didn't see anything that prohibits seniors from going out. Just prohibits businesses from letting them in. Did I read that right? BTW the Oxxo in La Canacinta had an employee at the door yesterday who stopped me from going in.

Every year i ask for the 50% discount for both property tax and water. I never get it. This is Chapala. I understand they give the discount in Jocotopec. I even showed the jefe at the Ajijic Simapa office their own printed policy which clearly mandates a 50% discount for seniors, and pointed out that it's unconstitutional to discriminate against non citizens. All I get is a shrug.

When did you ever get a senior discount?

I've had Telmex fiber service for some time. I'm very happy with both the Internet and voice service. There is no cost differential between fiber and copper. I and paying 599 and I usually get 200 down and 100 up.

The curious want to know...

Got my check a couple of days ago. It was mailed May 9. Took it to Intercam, where I have an account. They said it would take a week to clear, but the pesos have already been deposited to my account.
