So in the past 6 weeks in Spain, British gangs have shot 3 fellow Brits dead, 2prominant British paedophiles on-the-run have been caught and a mother has killed her 2 children in a hotel room.

I guess British criminals still love to come to Spain!

I wonder where on the Costa del Sol the photo was taken..

I always thought that the British expats living on the CDS are a dodgy lot. I don’t like to fall out with them, not even on an internet forum.

jojojojojo

Oooohh yeah, we're a dodgy lot lol!!!!

What is that? Benidorm?

jimenato

Yup - Benidorm - that well known Costa del Sol resort

I expect the rest of the article is just about as accurate

I don’t know how it happened, but I somehow got to read the story in the Daily Mail, and somehow read some of the many reader’s comments.

They’re a cruel lot in the Mail, most of the comments were along the lines of ‘Goodbye, scumbag’, and a lot of them came from CDS expats.

I suppose it proves two things. The CDS is full of Daily Mail readers; and they recognise a scumbag when they see one.

They couldn’t miss this one, he was 6.6” tall and known as Tall Dan from Billericay, a drug dealer who was on the run after shooting a man back home in Essex.

Didn`t know Dan , but I do know dickie.

Seems just about accurate according to the spanish press, except for the photo of course

So long as they are only shooting each other I`m happy for them to carry on

Indeed, sounds like they're doing everyone else a favour
