It's time for my biannual renewal of residency, so I made the trip to SD. Bought the 100 pesos application form at window 10, filled it in, handed it back and was told to wait until my name was called. All working as usual. During the 40 minutes I waited for my name to be called I noticed how...

Thursday I had the pleasure of playing the back 9 on the new golf course at la Estancia. If you like Dye Fore at Casa de Campo you'll also like this layout. The 18th hole looks like the 18th on the stadium course at Sawgrass (without the trees on the right :classic: ) It opens officially on...

I've been without DirecTV since Saturday. I know I couldn't see anything through Wednesday anyway (thanks to Noel) but during the brief let ups in the rain I saw that the message on the TV screen was not "Searching for satellite signal. Please stand by" as it usually is when it's raining. It...

The government announced today that it is changing its symbol to a "condom" because it more accurately reflects the government?s political stance. A condom allows for inflation, halts production, destroys the next generation, protects a bunch of pricks and gives you a sense of security while...

My parents are flying into SDQ next week and will be staying with us for 17 days. I read in another thread that there's a fine for tourists if you stay for more than 15 days. Last time I went through immigration on my way out I noticed a sign with the rates but I can't remember the limits and...

An Irishman and an Englishman had neighbouring sheep farms. One day the Englishman called the Irishman and said: ?One of your sheep has been caught by the leg in one of my bear traps, you?d better come and take it home.? ?What makes you so sure it?s one of my sheep,? The Irishman asked. ?Well...

What would it take to reunite the Beatles? - Two bullets. What happened when Jesus went to Mount Olive? - Popeye kicked the **** out of him. What did the leper say to the prostitute? - You can keep the tip. What goes clip-clop, clip-clop, BANG, clippety-clop, clippety-clop? - An Amish drive...

A few weeks ago my golfing buddy and I decided to get something for our Fedo-golf membership and play a round of golf on The Links at Casa de Campo. We played Dye Fore last year on the ?free spin deal? and since The Links was new to the Fedo-golf package this year and it?s been a while since we...

A father is driving his 6 year old daughter to school and fate has it they end up behind a Lorena Bobbitt hangaround, who's just about to throw her husband's severed penis from the car. With a 'smat' it lands right on the windshield of the following car, where the father thinks quickly and...

My sister is planning a visit to the island in February. She'll be travelling with hubby, her 3 year old daughter and 6 months old TBD. Everything looks and sounds so nice in the travel catalogue so she asked me to find out what I could about the following hotels and I knew the good people on...

I went to renew my fedogolf (Federacion Dominicana de Golf) membership yesterday on their new address on Macao in Arroyo Hondo and let's just say they don't spend their members fees in signs! This made me hope I'd be able to renew my card for the same price as last year (1730 pesos). Doh! The...

Pib pushed me to share my story of obtaining residency with all you good folks out there. Instead of abusing her good name in this forum I registered myself. Obtaining my residency in the DR turned out as easy as 1-2-3. I read Chirimoyas DIY 'horror story' and quickly turned to Fabio Guzman. I...
