There's a crowd of people here seem very happy with their lot. Just have to send JLFS to teach them Spanish.

Very interesting clip, and I was quite impressed, I thought they were doing great with the language, considering the short time they had been in Galicia.

I think there are some folks here who would be happy if you would give them a few pointers in English.................Have a look agoreira and see if you can help.................

My ex Spanish teacher has bought a house somewhere in the wilds of Galicia, I think he'd get on well with those people, he lives that sort of life. He has a shed full of woodworking tools, lathes etc, makes his own furniture, is happy to lead a very simple life He could also teach them Spanish, he has an excellent level of Spanish and is a great teacher. Well, not that great, he failed with me!:)

Cleaner streets (especially for dog owners to pick up after their pets)

Car owners to stop parking on pavements and pedestrian crossings

To be able to buy any decent clothes that aren't made of nasty man made fibres, decorated with diamante/sequins, frilly, flouncy, in garish colours (often all in the same garment)

telefonica to become a reasonable lot to deal with
silencers on those bloody motos
a better exhange rate

Not much of an incentive here for drivers that like to park where they like. Just reading this morning, things like parking in bus lanes without lights, on bends etc, will no longer mean points on your licence, just a fine! And you can't lose points for driving negligently.

Could I trouble you for his contact details? My other half is really struggling, and I am looking for a good teacher.

Re: Changes that would make Spain perfect for you...
 

Customer service.......it doesn't excist over here in any way, shape or form.

Re: Changes that would make Spain perfect for you...
 

The only way it could get better for us over here is if my family and friends were here, and being able to speak the language would help a lot but we're doing allright really.

I love it here!:wub::D

Re: Changes that would make Spain perfect for you...
 

Just like in England!

We bought a 42 in plasma from Carrefour, went black after 22 months, couldn`t repair it so gave us a new one with another 2 yr warranty. :thumbup:

Re: Changes that would make Spain perfect for you...
 

I'd have to get the details first, as I have not visited him yet, so not exactly sure where it is! One of my friends that used to attend his classes did visit him, and he said it is in a very rural, isolated spot! :) He's actually a chemical engineer and he has been working in Russia and Algeria, but I think he has finished there now.

Re: Changes that would make Spain perfect for you...
 

Early days yet! I hope it lasts.

Re: Changes that would make Spain perfect for you...
 

Isn`t Carrefour French company.

I`d have lost the receipt after 3 months.:o
