Note James that Riccardo58 makes statements but does not substantiate them He makes snide comments inferring that others don't know what they are talking about. I joined this site to try to contribute to others as I live most of the year in Cuba and have a fairly deep knowledge of the country. As an example of my actions, I responded to Majito - see first contribution and he has actually followed my advice. We have since then talked on the telephone in Cuba and hope to meet there during the next two weeks. However, as Riccardo58 has moved his attention from the Havana Times forum to here and as this site is degenerating as a consequence of his presence, I withdraw. I leave Ricardo58 to continue his disparaging remarks about Cuban women and totally unsubstantiated figures about the Canadian Embassy. Doing so does not present me with any difficulty, it merely removes any advice that I might have given to others in the future!
So youi can all get on with it!
