Re: Foreign/Guiri and proud.

Hi

Just a quickie - if you want to use accents on an English keyboard then press & hold the "alt Gr" key and tap the vowel you want

But it does not always work on this forum & I have no idea why

Is that because you speak Basque in Donostia?

I love San Sebastian, one of my favourite cities...
