To be totally honest, I'm not feeling the "heat" I still have my duvet on my bed, I was still wearing thick fleecy PJ's the other day. Probably because I'm still not acclimatised to the Uk weather Certain Countries know what their weather will be like, unlike the Uk, it's bit like a hit and miss here In Spain "sorry to mention that Country" the Spanish people tend to shed their clothing's in June whether it hot or not, they then put on their winter clothing's on around October/November time. When I lived in Spain I just used to soak a cotton sarong in the sink, wrap it around me and then just sit under my ceiling fan, job done I've never encountered a "Hose Pipe Ban" in Spain, I could be wrong though
That's were your'e wrong CC. Spain was ruled by Muslims before the Spanish Christians took over again. Hence the Christians and Moors. Maybe you should look back in the History regarding the Christians and Moors before you spout your mouth off with something you don't even know. Typical bloody American
Yes! Catalonia wanted there own "Independence" in Spain. Unless you have lived there for a number of years, not just having holidays over there. Come back to me when you've actually lived there, and not from a two week holiday
This is a Dating Site. This is what I signed up for yonks ago. Then I realised that it really wasn't People arguing re politics etc...or people wanting to get into your knickers Either way, it makes me
Can you elaborate on "Who" is "obsessed" with Boris? It makes a change from your "Obsessiveness" regarding Biden and Trump The Uk "not Islanders or Englanders" are sorting out our "Great Britain" can you say the same for your Country? You fight among yourselves all the time Call it a Great America? We Brits tend to stick together, no matter what Government is in office. We may disagree with the Politics but we don't "flood" the threads regarding American Politics. You know nothing about the Uk so I'm not sure why you insist on posting silly stupid threads regarding the Uk? How about you sorting out your "Gun Laws" in America first? Save lives
I lived in Spain from 2006 until 2020 but we owned the apartment since 1999 and used to go there 3 times per year, split our weeks holidays up. Spain is a beautiful Country. Us Brits just seem to associate Spain with Benidorm, like many Brits associate the north as in Blackpool, Morcambe and Southport as in tourism. We have the beautiful Lake District here in the Uk. Spain has lots of History just like the Uk. Over the years, I've been to Valencia, Almeria, a province within Andalusia region, down to Gibralta. It's quite difficult to explain the regions and provinces along with the Cities or Towns. The Spanish people are so friendly, they are very family orientated. They go out on Sunday afternoons, all the family go to lunch at a Spanish Restaurant. It really is lovely to see them. In the summer months, the kids all go to a park to play football, they have lots of parks for the kids, they don't seem to hang about on the streets like they do in the Uk. It's more multicultural in Spain than it is in the Uk from what I've experienced living there. I will never have a bad word to say about Spain and before anyone asks why I came back to the Uk, that's my business. My lovely friend that I'd known for 15ys, had no family in Spain, I had a set of his keys as he was always locking himself out. He was a lot older than me and had serious health problems. I was back in the Uk when his daughter messaged me to ask if I was his interpreter? Obviously I wasn't, it was the Spanish woman that we both had and she had the same name as me. The Guardia had to break in but unfortunately he was found deceased on his lounge floor In Spain, you have to be cremated within 2 or three days or you have to pay mega bucks to keep the body. They don't have graveyards in Spain, if you want to be buried, they are brick buildings above ground.
Sorry for the long tedious post. I just wanted to give a bit of an incite regarding Spain..........
He can come and visit me anytime, although I don't live in Manchester or Greater Manchester but I'm in a very rural area. I'd give him a good cup of Yorkshire Tea and then ask him to leave me a good Bob or Two
Do you think for one moment that we would have an American as our PM? And more to the fact that he's over State Pension age along with Trump. We prefer our PM's to be a tad younger. Boris seemed to start off well but then he must have thought he was "Above the Law" Well he got his "comeuppance" in the end and rightly so.
As long as you don't come over, calling everyone "Englanders" You'd end up with a "Glasgow Kiss"
Yeah! they'll drag him out with his bottle of wine and cheese crackers but at least Corbyn won't be there Our Government needs to be sorted out but without Corbyn. He ruined the Labour Party..........
Nowt wrong with having your own language along with the Welsh You should be proud of your Country as I am of mine. Shush though, we may bring in the alien Did an alien land on the moon?
Thank you so much SA although many people ask why we still have a Monarch and many British don't want a Monarch, I personally love our Queen she's dedicated her whole life representing the British people. She vowed on her Coronation that she would devote her life to representing the people of the Uk. She hasn't had it good, she had to tell her own sister Margaret that she couldn't marry Townsend as he was a divorcee and if she did, she would have to give up all her rights as a Princess. So much sadness within the Royal Family. I personally think that once our beautiful Queen Elizabeth is gone, then that will be the end of our Monarchy Sad but true.....but Queen Elizabeth the 2nd will definitely go down in History along with Henry the 8th Queen Victoria and Elizabeth the 1st
For all the genuine people of America, I truly Salute you and I hope you all have a wonderful day Celebrating this, your Special Day and yes! God Bless America
Well I doubt very much that the people that are working in the Uk not just "ENGLAND" will be thinking about your Independence Day, just like you Americans didn't get 2 days off work while we Celebrated our Queens Platinum Jubilee
I think that most people know what you're about now Galrads. Are you still so stupid to keep posting England or are you just trying to wind people up. Either way, you still come across as stupid. Your an Italian American aren't you? Well I think that your Italian friends won't be pleased regarding your disrespect for the people of the Uk .Maybe spend a bit more time learning about the 4 Countries of the Uk instead of just saying "ENGLAND" all the time. It's disrespectful and uncalled for but maybe you think it's funny? I don't think it's funny as I've always respected American people. Maybe it's about time you did the same to us British
Sorry to Americans in my post. I was just trying to prove a point to Galrads
