Well, I have friends in the Chapala area....

When they need something repaired (plumbing, driveway cracks etc.), they pickup the phone, and someone is usually there in a day or two at most, and they get it done. My relatives in Oakville took 11 months to get their first floor redone. The contractor would show up a day or two, then disappear for a month..

Same with their kitchen. The cabinets kept getting delayed. Then the counter-tops, the granite didn't match, another months, etc. etc.

People in Chapala speak better English, than the Latino's I have met in the USA..

I agree it isn't BobCaygeon. But probably not the way you think...
