Re: Toys and Clothes Shopping

Re: Toys and Clothes Shopping

Hi all, just wondering if anyone knows what your consumer rights are in Spain if something is faulty but you've lost the receipt? We bought one of our grandchildren a toy from El Corte Ingles for...

Re: Learning Spanish

I think it's a great thing to learn a language and I admire those who do. I remember when my son was at school and learning French and his teacher was English but obviously fluent in French. I...

Re: Learning Spanish

Thanks for that, from reading your response and those of other people, it sounds like classes will be the way to go. I'll try and find out if there are any local classes, good way to socialise I...

Re: Learning Spanish

Thanks very much for that advice. I must admit, I'm always a bit sceptical when people have told me you 'pick it up'. I often imagine them saying that with a big phrase book in their pocket! I agree...

Re: Toys and Clothes Shopping

Of course I forgot about that. We'll have to take them the day before and think of some other way of entertaining them on Christmas Eve. I may have to resort to good old charades. Not sure the...

Re: If only you had known ......

I remember when my son's wife was in Rome and she tried to order a 'Diet Coke'. The waiter refused to serve her until she asked for 'Cola Light'. He was quite serious about it as well. I personally...

Re: If only you had known ......

Re: Toys and Clothes Shopping

It was fast. It says 4 days on their website and I placed order on Monday, so I'm pleased with that considering it's Christmas. Trousers are a little loose on the waistline, but I'm thinking...

Re: Toys and Clothes Shopping

I received the Cotton Traders clothing this morning. Apart from a very grumpy courier, everything else looks good so far, nice fit and good quality for the price. They have also given me a code for a...
