A great motive.

Sounded like you were saying they were your worst nightmare to deal with as a cop

But I don't really understand why you posted if it isn't true and I'm obviously not alone in reading it that way

It seems to me that there are two camps posting here, one is convinced that the British diners did nothing wrong and it's all the fault of the Spanish and the other saying that as we don't know the full story we can't make up our minds.

I have no idea where "restaurant that you are defending to the hilt" or "Desperately seeking anything to excuse the Spanish" or "sheer desperation to believe the Spanish" have come from.

People here are just making stuff up.
