Hilarious as usual (ar least is your mind), but completely ridiculous comment.

Having more renewable electricity is good in my book. But what the country needs is a working rid system, so that large areas are not blacked out every time there is one small problem, or trees need to be cut.

Agreed. A large proportion of this strange video is taken up by property scams that happen in the US. What does that have to do with anything that happens in the DR?

If you can negotiate that Jumbo roundabout, you should have no problem elsewhere! Just remember that UK roundabout rules do NOT apply here! When I did my test they gave me the equivalent of the UK "Highway Code" when I applied for the licence.

Does this Magic Jack work to call phones anywhere, including my bank in the UK, for example?

When I got my DR licence, about twelve years ago, it was possible to get one by using a UK licence after Residency. But you had to do it in Santo Domingo and it was pretty complicated. I just took the DR test like a normal driver to save time and trouble. It was a piece of cake, but somebody...

El hijo de Mangu likes to make up things about the English to suit his prejudices. He really should visit the country and try one of the many highly rated restaurants now that he has apparently escaped his hated Cabarete.

When I first came here, 15 years ago, there was a supermarket in Sosua that sold all those British products, plus a lot of German and other European goods. As the number of flights and visitors from Europe dwindled, the supermarket closed. Now, online is the only option for Brits, unfortunately.

Which Sosua beach are you referring to? I can't think of one I would call "filthy". Anyway, I don't see what Sosua beaches have to do with Marbetes.

I agree that the video was pretty uninteresting. But what's wrong with her voice - you don't like the English accent? Come and talk to me and get really annoyed! :)

Sorry - I seem to be disagreeing with you on a couple of matters today. Nothing personal! The map in this article shows the fault line passing just to the north of the DR with the red part being the danger...

When they are expecting major flooding, they send out text messages to all.

Obviously you know nothing about "soccer" as you call it if you thin k there aren't a lot of rules and strategy. A Canadian friend of mine told me yesterday that for every half hour of match time in American "football" there are just eight and a half minutes of actual play.

I'm surprised they didn't send text messages to warn everyone who could be affected, but maybe they didn't want to start an even more dangerous stampede of people fleeing.

I'm surprised that nobody else has commented that watching a Super BOWEL isn't much fun!

What on Earth is that supposed to mean? I see you're back to writing incomprehensible gibberish.

But at least it's not being spent on what some would describe as genocide in Haiti.

That's right and the flight between Punta Cana and Gatwick is the one I am taking. The point I was making was that you can't go from POP to UK direct. And I have checked flights via Canada and Switzerland to UK from POP and reached the conclusion that going to Punta Cana and then flying direct...

It's getting more and more difficult to fly between the DR and Europe. I am going to England soon and have decided the best way is to go to Punta Cana all the way from the North Coast, like Josh 2033. When I first came here in about 2008 there were at least four flights a week between POP and...

I think your best bet is to ask the company that delivers to the DR.
