At last that prog, 'Living in Spain' has gone. After watching a few episodes of that programme I honestly didn't believe I lived in the same country!!!

Naaah, we have great fun playing 'Buzzword Bingo'
You score on the predictable phrases.
eg 'Giving their all' 'Last Resort', 'Make or break', 'Last chance', and so on.
You also score for things like bridging loans, inadequate finance, spurious deadlines and unrealistic expectations.
In one recently they were doing up a shop with Russian and Spanish labourers, and had allowed about a week to deal with officialdom.
When the voiceover announced that there was a problem, the cries of 'No sh*t Sherlock!' were deafening.
I watch them to catch a glimpse of the round yellow thing in the sky, name slips my mind, it's been so long, and to be reminded that the sky really is blue.
Plus there is always the chance I'll see somewhere I know.
I have to agree that the way they portray people swanning in and succeeding on a tiny budget just makes my blood run cold.
